I need to get a TB by this weekend. I have the mods in sig. Should I by a stock tb or a bigger one from a vender on here? I looked at the 80mm on ws6 store. I like that one.

what are your future plans for your car?
if you have $2-$300 to spend on a new throttle body, and don't have any serious plans of an extreme H/C package or a turbo in the near future, I would just buy a stock one for $30 and port it yourself. then you can buy a new intake mani with the rest of your money, instead of buying a $2-300 throttle body and have it choked by the ls1 intake anyway.

i lay down almost 500whp through a ported ls6 and tb. the 90mm plus setups are a waste of money if you don't have supporting mods. i would just get a ls6 combo and be done, plus you'll have money for all the stuff your gonna break leftover.
