We have developed a complete DBW adapter kit for the Mazda FD3S Rotary Engine/Chassis OEM manifold. Bring your FD into the 21st century and experience the benefits of Electronic DBW Throttle system. No need for that old IACV or AAC with this setup! DBW allows for exact and precise throttle control without using timing or external valves to control idle speed.
The Benefits of Drive By Wire (DBW):
- "Point and Shoot" idle control. Program what you want your idle speed to be and the throttle will work automatically to maintain that idle speed.
- Eliminates the need for aging, dirty idle air control valves that can be a costly to replace and a nightmare to tune properly.
- Eliminates air leaks and "throttle sticking" that can be found in cable driven throttle body applications. Having the shaft seals leak and cause boost issues is never fun, neither is having a throttle cable seize in the open position!
- Improve throttle response via programmable ramp rates vs throttle size.
- Cruise control - yep, on a manual transmission - pretty cool for highway use.
- Automatic throttle blips on downshifts and many more race specific functions.
