Diagnose intake leaks, MAF inputs and wiring before condemning the throttle body.

Fitment
DE/RevUp has one throttle body; HR has two and side matters. Follow factory precautions: do not force the electronic plate, replace disturbed gaskets and complete the applicable closed-throttle/accelerator/idle-volume learning procedure. Diagnose intake leaks, MAF inputs and wiring before condemning the throttle body.
Aftermarket options
A new Hitachi DE assembly is a defensible OE-supplier-style path. HR buyers can choose exact-side new or remanufactured assemblies. Oversize throttle bodies can require calibration and are outside a stock replacement decision.
Before you buy
DE uses one throttle body; HR uses two side-specific units. Do not force the electronic plate or skip the factory learning steps. Cart/ship-time language is not guaranteed inventory, and used electronic throttle bodies require exact-side verification.
