Default TNT Power ring for 90 mm TB?

Any plans over at TNT to make a power ring to adapt up to a 90 mm TB?

My brother was able to grind the crap out of mine to fit (and open up) my 90 mm TPIS throttle body. Took a while, but it is possible...

Cool, that's good to know. I've been avoiding getting a larger throttle body because I didn't think the power ring had enough material on it to machine it to fit a 90mm throttle body.

Wouldn't happen to have pics?

So I could have someone competent grind on my TNT F1 ring so it will fit. Or is it something I could do?

I would bring the ring and throttle body to a machine shop. They could make it fit perfect. Although, if your good with a grinder or a dremel I'm sure you could make it work.

But will this 90mm TB be benifitial with respect to HP/TQ gains ON MY MOTOR if I'm putting it on my LS6 intake?
Or do you have to have a custom or sheetmetal intake?

I'm not sure what kind of gains 427/436 owners are seeing with the 90mm throttlebody/LS6 set up, the gains might not be worth the investment. If you had the extra cash, a 90mm FAST intake and matching throttle body would probrably be well worth the money with your set up.

I don't think any vendor has the 90mm FAST throttlebody yet but, LG Motorsports is making there own. I think Thunder Racing and a couple other vendors have the 90mm FAST intake in stock. It would be over $1000 investment for both but, LGM made 503rwhp on a heads and cam car with this setup.
