you guys need to make two versions, one with the stock throttle body and one with the rx-8 throttle body. both would obviously need to be located in the stock location of the throttle body. that way high hp guys can run the rx-8 throttle since its bigger and plugs right in.

The plugs fit right in, but you need a spacer for it to bolt. That's all. The RX8 is 70mm, while ours is I think 56mm.

sorry, old thread here in SL, I was the test subject, but the TB I bought seemed to be bad, or stuck. I never could finish my N/A project, so I did the next thing to do. Move to Florida. :D
