ORIGINAL: coop7

Yeah...
Didn't need one that big...
My cams a.500 lift with a 273 duration so that wont really use the whole thing...
I plan on eventually puttin a blower on it...
Better too much tb than not enough though...
Least that's wut I figure...
Wut did u put on?

That tells us nothing about your cam. We need the specs.


I am running a stocktwin 57mm TB. Then again I don't have your average v6 motor.

Gonna have to sell the damn tb I just bought cause he sent mea friggin 5.0 tb instead of a 3.8 tb...

Yeah, the 218/226 is a decently sized cam. Mine is a 214/224 and is too small for my m112.

So u think a tb upgrade wouldn't hurt?
I want a bigger one...
But the whole point is performance...
A tb isn't really a "looks" thing...
lol
But I just want to make sure increasing the tb size to 65 or 70mm won't decrease my performance instead of helping...

If your intakes are stock then the TB blade will hit the intake and therefor you cannot go to true 100% WOT. However porting the beginning of the intake will allow the tb to operate normally. You may losesome hpnow that you're NA but when you go blown it'll help.
