Default s2 throttle body.

I have a big cam, headers, ls6 intake and no cats. Is it worth it to put a shaner ls2 90mm tbody on my ls6 intake? My cam redlines at 6900rpms. Does this tbody come with a TPS harness and adaptor plate? Would I be able to limp my car over to my tuner after i install it? Thanks in adavance

No! Not worth it to put a 90mm tb on a 78mm hole... Just buy the s2 if auto. S3 if manual and be done with it.

You will not gain from putting a 90mm on a ls6 intake unless you have a TPIS ls6 with their 90mm snout...

Port your stocker yourself and save some cash...

Hope you get this takin car of soon.

Completely agree. S2 for A4, S3 for M6.

After having an S3 myself, there is no better TB for an LS6 intake than a Shaner.
