Default FAST 102 and TB best combo?

I've done searches but can't seem to get it all together cohesively, so I'm asking for advice/experience.
Got a 430 LS7, ported exhaust heads, 50# injectors, 1 7/8 headers, cam, Wiseco 11.25:1
Just put on the FAST and am initially using my Mamo ported 90mm TB.
It is a street car so low end TQ good.
Would I benefit from a larger TB?
Thanks

When you goto wide open throttle, does you MAP sensor say you have a restriction?

What MAF are you using?

Halltech 102 MAF
4" intake tube
12" conical AMSOIL low restriction filter.

Haven't tuned it yet with the new intake

No problem
This is a learning experience and is sorta fun.
I put this LS7 in my 69 in 08 and am still tinkering with stuff, trying to find the best set up for a NA beast.
Keep me posted, and don't hesitate to pm me if you need some'in.

I picked up 10+hp and 10+TQ on a 500fwhp 6.0L when swapping a 102mm TB and Halltech MAF. Im sure your engine would pick up the same or more since it much larger and can pump more air.

Do you have any tuning software? Can you log you MAP kPa?

Great, at 10/10 that would equate to about 7 or 8 at the pavement, if I get higher #'s even better.
I'm sure my tuner can log pressures, but I"ll check to make sure.
Thanks
