Default Nitro Dave 92mm plate?

Dave, do you have any plans for this? I am not to concerned with it, but it will deturmine whether or not I go with a 90 or 92mm TB for the FAST, being that the 90 FASTs have been discontinued.

Thank you

Sounds good Ray. If you have a time frame that would be great.

Yeah, as far as the 2mm really being worth it, I doubt it, at least in my situation running stock displacement. But being that the FAST 90 is discontinued, and I have yet to buy one, running a 90 mm plate on a 92 set up won't work.

It wont? How come? Just looking for info here. I was going to try and put a 95 on Dave's elbow, but will need to open it up a bit is all I can see. Seems going with a smaller TB would be a matter of just bolting it on. Also, and not saying to do this, or trying to 2nd guess the engineers, seems the current plates, from all three companies, could just be machined or die ground to a slightly larger size as the 2mm is really not a great increase.

this is assuming both intakes will use the same bolt patternn, and the plates have enough room between the opening and the internal passages to just bore them out.

the bolt pattern for the TB will be the same. A LS2 TB will bolt up to it, so I see no problem using a 90mm plate.
