Throttle bodies, and the 617...

What effects, good or bad, would a throttlebody have on the 617 engine?

It would kill efficiency from pumping losses, cause a increase in oil consumption as oil is pulled past the valve stem seals and damage the turbo from airflow surge when the throttle is closed.

Probably to reduce airflow through the engine.
