Default type R throttle body onto GSR manifold ?

Well a couple questions...

1) Is is a straight bolt on to the GSR stock manifold ?

2) With a stock head, manifold, gsr cams... would it be worth getting it ? (I might be able to get one in a parts trade)

they are nice to have over a gsr. doesn't make that big of a difference. yes it's direct swap, but you should portmatch the manifold inlet as well and use type r gasket or trim the stock gsr to size.

swap the bracket and rotor over to the ITR tb. or you can make a bracket and bolt it under the manifold where the iab stuff was, that is, if you aren't using the butterflies and have a stock gsr manifold.
