Default Skunk2 DBW 72MM Black Series Throttle Body - In My Hands!!

Installing tonight or tomorrow and back on the dyno this weekend. Were aiming to make serious power on my project car. Special Thanks to Tony S and the entire team @ Skunk2 Racing for there continued support of my Project Car and Team Import DPS / RStech Racing.








9-15-2010 - Actual Specs


The Skunk2 DBW 72MM Throttle Body starts at 80mm on the inside right at the beginning of the taper, then deeper in it is 74mm. The actual outer diameter is bigger than 80mm and, for those of you on the board that are saying the TL is just an 80mm, its actually an 80mm that tapers down to 70mm. I measured that while I was at it. It is a full 72MM Hole where it bolts up to the Intake manifold.
