I'm going to take a different stance on the Boost-a-pump. What happens if the BAP goes out and causes the car to lean out? Adding a BAP isnt a bad idea, but with bigger injectors and a proper tune that is the best way to go IMO. Plus adding one just makes for one more thing to check if a problem should arise.

Gotcha! 
Well here is a cell phone comparison between stock TB and 82mm TB side by side. Sorry for the crappy quality. The stock TB opening actually fits INSIDE the 82mm opening lol. I bought a new sc inlet and getting an adapter machined by a CNC machine out of billet aluminum and welded onto the inlet. Stay tuned

The shop thats doing the CNC work is pretty backed up. We were actually going to go to the track today but it started raining, they just finished a 850whp IS300 (street car)
They told me it will be made by mid/end of this week.But in terms of fitting it on a car, it's been on my car for a few weeks now
I did need a retune but it may be because I completely redesigned the intake setup to 3.5" piping and made a bigger MAF housing and totally got rid of the 55k airboxes. I gained 25whp in 40 degree hotter temps but then ran out of fuel (after I get bigger injectors put in and retune I will see the true gain). It is more difficult to fit on our cars but I worked out most of the bugs. Let me know if you wanna try. I didn't have to change any wires either

My car has been running with the 82mm TB for a few weeks now. No hiccups or anything. Just hit it and go. I'm trying to rent the track tomorrow and maybe get some video to post up. Car isn't fully tuned yet though

Strange but the wall thickness looks about the same as the stock TB but Victor stated that the 82mm wall is twice as thick and can be bored out to 100mm in his "82mm TB" thread. Do you think the wall is thick enough to bore out to 90-100mm??

ahmad,
You might want to get Accufab a call. They do custom applications and who knows, maybe they could help you out. I'm sure if you were able to give them the pinout and voltage specs for your TB setup they may be able to come up with something. Just a thought. They are big players in the TB industry.
