Ok I see all of the new tb and intakes that are 90mm and the maf that is 85 mm but what good are those if you have a lid that is 75-78mm? Going from 75mm to 90mm at the TB dont you lose velocity? I just do not see how you are going to gain in the amount of air going in when you start smaller than you finish with at the intake. What am I missing?

The inlet restrictions are a cumulative thing. A 90 mm LSX and T/B improve 2 of the 4 restrictions. Just get to them one at a time, each one will make a differance. The more radical the engine the more differance they'll make
