first off what intake do you have now . if it is stock a 70mm is useless because it will just restrict back down to the 60mm stock opening if you have an aftermarket intake what kind do you have ?

just get a 70mm.
its not gonna be bad for the motor at all and you'll be saving yourself money in the long run if you only have to buy one tb. but im not sure if the egr plate is necessary or not.
thats why i love my sn95, cause i dont have one
