Which Weiand intake will you be using: The older LS1 or the Street Attack. The older LS1 I think will only accept stock style TB while the Street Attack will accept LS2/90mm or LS6 TBs. For the MAF, I would ditch it and go with a Speed Density tune.

If you're running the Vortech aftercooler I wouldn't be too worried about using a larger than stock TB.

What do you currently have? More specs please...

I'm running the LS2 tb. I don't think it's holding me back much.

You will need a LS1/LS6 style TB. A LS6 TB will be more than fine.
