well, there is bigger for sure. Check out the Southways 108. Its capable, but costs about 3 times as much as a NW 102.

I use a 4 rubber coupler that I bought from a reputable vendor that deals in intake tubing items only. It will go on, but requires a little elbow grease. I bought my carbon fiber tubing from same vendor.

The OD of the NW is just around 4.125. The 4 inch silicone tubing with stretch over the flange but you will need a 4.25, not just a 4 inch hose clamp.

it's been happening with a lot of other parts.
screw them, just for doing that, not just for lousy quality.

It's not misleading at all. I would suggest an in depth google search.

I mean, honestly, if your tune is already dialed in on an E40, the ECM already knows the idle airflow and startup airflow requirements. None of that will change. It just needs to know how big the TB is so it can translate those to a position value for a given airflow requirement.
if you get a dramatic increase in airfow because you switch to a bigger TB, i can imagine having to do some additional retuning.
i have read boosted guys have issues with NW102's, but i also read that has been corrected. I have no experience using it with boost.
