Question 90mm or 92mm TB & Intake??

Just wondering if a 92mm TB and intake combo is a little much for my setup. I have a ls1 with Forged internals Stock bore just been honed (Spelling?) for the new pistons AFR 225 heads milled to 62cc 233/239 595/603 TSP cam and other bolt ons in my sig. Would i be okay going with the 92mm combo or should i just get the 90mm?? I do plan on doing a diff setup in the future maybe a 402 or a 408. Any input would be great.

You should be just fine with the 92mm. A guy I know just got done building his car. He has Patriot stg 3 heads, T-rex cam and 92mm intake. His car made 478rwhp I believe.

I went with a 92mm intake and 96mm TB. Opened up the intake for it. I will be a 346 heads/cam/intake/tb car. Do it once!

The 92mm is definitely not too big for a H/C car. It's also not going to make any more power than a 90mm setup. Fast made a few design upgrades but didn't exactly increase performance.

^Those numbers are downright amazing for a stalled A4...are those SAE? I know the TFS heads make some great power but dayum! 458RWTQ out of a 346 is crazy.

That's what the engine made. At the wheels it is less as I am sure you know.

Well that makes a hell of a lot more sense! Still good numbers
