I have an 80mm TB from the CL600. 1371410125. It is better at the exreams but it is only worth it for fun and learning reasons.

The CL600 TB fits perfect without any Modifications?

Mike, you must be dreaming. Very little fits perfectly inside that engine bay.
The TB cable needs to be modified by swapping two pairs of pins. The SC inlet needs to be ported and modified somewhat in order to take a different bolt pattern that is on the TB. I also cut away some of the firewall behind the TB to make some room and to prevent the intake pipes from robbing.
To make sure that the new TB capacity is not being wasted, more air and more gas need to be supplied while maintaining proper AFR.

Is this boring the 80mm to 82 or a completely different throttle body?
Can you elaborate more about an 82 on a 32?

Nice reads, I assume the 82 kit that Eurocharged has won't fit the 32 otherwise it would be listed etc. Looks like its not a simple mod in all.
