I have never seen one that did.

A throttle body is acutally a great mod on a blown car though. I didn't get a before/after (because I already had it on before hand) but I have heard of gains between 10-20 WHP on a FI car.

Any aftermarket t/b for a 2v 4.6L should work with any centri supercharger kit.

Just get an Aviator throttle body. It'll bolt right up to the setup and it is apprently a 70mm tb too. Only about $88 or so I think.

What if you add a Plenum and a 75 TB to an already bolton car as in my sig?

Then maybe it will give some more bang for the buck?

The Plenum and TB is the only thing I am missing exept cams and such.
