Isn't the TF Street TB opening 70MM?

For some reason I thought that was what I bought when I put on the TF Street upper/lower.

Does it matter if your TB opening is smaller than the opening on your upper intake? I'm almost positive I was told to buy a 70MM TB and EGR with my set up and it appears my intake has a 75MM opening.

TFS street heat is 75mm... Trickflow website

Your TB doesn't need to be as large as the opening of the intake. That would actually hurt most N/A applications. 65-70mm is the biggest most of us need. It only hurts you if your TB is larger than the opening on the upper intake (like putting a 65-70mm TB on a stock upper w/o enlarging it).
