So then no 90mm TB. One thing you want to be careful with in this approach is that the plate is cut at an angle. It will be difficult to replicate this angle when boring out the TB. If it doesn't seal properly then you will have rough idle etc. This is why I stayed away from porting an OEM TB. Then again there are people on here that don't want to use any OEM parts whether they are modfied or not

I do not want to release pricing just yet.Looking around this forum....I should have sold MB parts years ago.Sad part is the Porsche guys are also getting the stiff! Either people are very naive or they just pay more because it makes them feel better.

I am confused on this discussion. Are you taling about the plenum? I am cutting the plenum in half. The back half matches up to the SC and is HUGE. The front may be the 85mm you are talking about. The adapter plate becomes the front half of the plenum.

How is the design you guys are talking about and where is this 85mm bottleneck?

I wouldnt call it a bottle neck but the plate where the throttle body bolts to (by plate I mean the cast housing on the rear of the eaten charger) has a 75mm opening. We are going to BORE it out and then run an adapter plate.
I will start a new thread when everything arrives.
