It doesnt matter what size the TB is if the smallest opening is still ~75MM (lid) or 85MM (Z06 MAF). You can only flow the amount of air the smallest opening will allow.

Yes, but alot of people are waiting on a 90mm tb for the FAST intake. And the price looks very good. I'm sure the 105 would be for a custom intake.

You can see the bolt patterns are diffrent from the FAST in the pictures. I think there "race" TB's are for custom intakes only. 90 or 105.

why not?


I would love to see someone make a "plastic" version of the sheet metal intakes (short runner) manifolds. Might be interesting on big CI motors.

Yeah, those are a universal TB. They don't have an LS1 bolt pattern. Good idea for a custom sheet metal intake though

Could have something to do with a blade breaking, and sucking a screw into a motor. TB failure sucks.

Nope not my car. I saw the TB Granny was talking about, and if its the same one mentioned in this thread....... The car that the screw got sucked into was far from a budget build up.
