okay so since i got my car dyno'd i have been wondering why my power drops off so badly after like 7500 rpms. I thought it was the exhaust and header, but i then realized i have a 68mm holley throttle body on it. BUT this throttle body is 68mm all the way through, it is NOT tapered and lacks the velocity stack that all throttle bodies have.
my question is, could this throttle body actually be costing me power? Since i would believe at 8k you would need all the flow you could get along iwht the most acceleration. if someone could help me out here that would be awesome, im not all that sure of flow characteristics or dynamics, but if honda designed a velocity stack, im sure theres a reason.
Note: THe power just drops like a rock after like 7500, also dont mind the juice stain on the paper
