Re: throttle body too big?
Uhmm, a side note. When using the BBTB thats REALLY BB'd you might wanna take incoming charge velocity into consideration if going N/A. With the N/A setup it is the volme of air displaced by the cylinders on their seperate induction strokes that draws the intake charge through the TB; if you go too big you'll lose charge velocity and therefore will have fewer [lb/ft]^2 of air flowing through the ports.
With a turbo application, depending on the effective A/R and several other very headachy factors you might be able to go way big, as in big enough for Godzilla to fit through. But then agin you'd need a surge-type IM to support such an airstream.
Just some thoughts bro, hope it helped.:bandit:
