clearly there is a problem here.....i did think it was 74 b/c it is the same size as the E55 (i think), but AMS said it is 68?

AMS, what TB did you start off with? C32? i'm confused

I believe 68 mm is on C320s and 240s.

If AMS's "bored-out" C32 throttle body is 74mm, and the stock C32 throttle body is 74mm... I can see how the "perfect fitment" claim can be validated.

well if AMS was making a "larger throttle body" for the C32, which is bored out to 74 from 68, then I guess that is the problem. They used the wrong one and won't work (or at least you wont see gains) on the C32 b/c that is the stock size that it is bored out too or w/e.

It’s 113 150 00 28. Mine measured ~74mm on the digital micrometer.

Respectfully, it’ll behoove one to heed Vadim@VRP’s posts and intel.
He’s long been regarded by many here as a respected and trusted expert on AMG matters.
