buy carb cleaner/starting fluid from a parts store and spray it around the intake plenum, pretty much anywhere you think the leak might be. or you could pay a shop to do it for you with an air compressor.

You have a JDM B16 right? Then you have a FITV unless you are bypassing, which may also be your problem.

SiR 1 has an FITV? i switched out the throttle body for an ls one because my old throttle body had a broken map sensor nipple (the ls TB doesn't have an FITV). the old one didn't have an FITV either tho..
