BUT what you can do is bore it out yourself.
this one guy on 3geez.com bored out his t/b on his accord and he noticed the gain.

as soon as i find another 2.7l g1 in the junkyard ill get the tb and bore it out myself... in some cars this can give you as much as a 10% gain in hp...
if all works out ill post a diy...

it's worth it...but dude did say that he over did one and when he revved it the t/b cracked....

 

[maytagman]

make sure after you bore it out you clean it REAAALLL good... dont want any metal filings getting sucked into the combustion chamber
i still cant find a local legend in a wrecker... maybe i should order a couple tbs from ebay or something...
