Nah, not the twin turbos. Theres a guy in finland or another country who makes 70mm (i think) throttle bodies for us (and fieros) it was discussed a while ago as was a GP with him.

Depends..on a modded motor? Quite a bit. Those stock TB's are 52mm (got all this info from fieros) the new one hes making is 62mm. Obviously more air coming in would help. Going to buy a junkyard top plenum and port the hell out of it to and gasket match it to the TB

Yes very true, pushing or sucking? being able to push that are in there would be sweett..but no turbo or s/c'r is my goal. The K&N can handle it, but i need to see what i can do about opening the rest of the induction up. The intake is VERY restrictive.
