The inner bore on the skunk2 manifold is 64mm. Some people bore their throttle body out to match the skunk2 bore for a smooth flow.

Are the throttle bodies worth the 315$ if your not running forced induction. Maybe say alot of nitrous

there are some places that service your oem throttle body, they will bore it out for like $100. just get it matched to the skunk2 and you'll be set.

Incorrect. 70mm opening tapered to a 64mm outlet. It is just like an ITR but tapered to 70mm at the opening. It comes with new sensors too w00t w00t.
