Default 92mm TB on 90mm intake?

Will installing a 92mm throttle body on a FAST 90 have any negative affects? Seems like it would create turbulence. Or should I buy a 90mm throttle body?

Not a huge issue with the difference in size. It will fit fine. If you are worried, just open the inlet on the intake. 1mm all the way around and you will be good to go!

Thanks! Didnt think it was a big deal, but just wanted to be sure before I spent almost $400 on a throttle body.
