It's no secret that Honda's RRC and RBC intake manifolds are some of the best flowing intake manifolds available from Honda for the K-Series engine. RBC and RRC manifold swaps are a popular solution for engines equipped with less desirable intake manifolds like the 2012 - 2015 9th Gen Honda Civic Si, 2013 - 2015 Acura ILX, 2009 - 2014 Acura TSX or 2008 - 2012 Honda Accord. Often times these manifold swaps require a throttle body adapter. We offer a billet throttle body adapter machined from 6061 aluminum to seamlessly adapt a specific DBW or drive-by-wire throttle body to the intake manifold. A 70mm ZDX / MDX throttle body upgrade is a great way to increase airflow for these newer DBW K-Series cars. It offers OEM reliability and driveability at an affordable price.
This throttle body adapter utilizes an O-ring to seal against the intake manifold and OEM Honda gasket to seal against the throttle body. A 1/8" NPT port and 90 degree fitting retains the factory EVAP Purge, but can also be deleted or plugged for a cleaner install. EVAP can be disabled with an engine tuner like Hondata FlashPro or KTuner. Also included is a MAP sensor delete plug because the integrated MAP sensor on the ZDX throttle body is no longer needed.
