70mm throttle body sizing
I'm trying to buy a throttle body and came across a skunk 2 70mm throttle body for $200. I've got a golden eagle intake manifold. Do you think there is any problem with using the 70mm sizing throttle body going onto a 64mm manifold? Thanks.

Firstly, what's your engine and your setup?
Secondly, I doubt the answer to the first question will really matter. 70mm is probably WAY too big...

if you are boosted then 70mm is a good size but if the manifold is only 64mm then it is almost pointless. the air coming in is only as good as the biggest hole (64mm) but if I were you I would just pull the manifold take your gasket and mark it then port match it, then get it re-tuned.
