i was going to get a 70mm to 75mm trotle body pluss the manifold to match i was going to cost me $800 to $900 Aud from rpw had a talk to my local mechanic and he said he could do it a whole lot cheaper and installe it as well so f**k rpw sometimes its better to just talk to a real mechanic than some one with a good website and you save on postage

wouldnt that be overkill for an fto?

im not even getting the billet one and im doing crazy sh*t to my engine... all i ggot was the ported tb and intake manifold from rpw cos i read somewhere bennoz wrote that anything over 65mm (the ported size) would be to much

yeah its a overkill ive had mine done to 63mm cant tell you results yet but 70-5 is definatly overkill unless your going to look at doin turbo etc
