Default Throttle body choices....

Here's my set up:
Euro-R H22
Jun stage 3 cams
Supertech valvetrain with flat top valves
Header, intake, exhaust (2.5 inch)

I was looking to get a 68mm BDL throttle body but it seems they only make 66 or 70. Anyone have any suggestions of what throttle body i should run or where i can find a 68mm BDL? I've owned a 68mm Skunk2 throttle body in the past and definitely not considering getting another one...

WTF bore the stock one? you couldn't bore out the stock TB to 68mm!!!!? I have a Blox 68mm on my 5th gen it works ok but its a lil sticky If I could get another one I would proble go with "Omni-power". They have 68mm, 70 and I think 72mm TB. I've heard good things about them

It's over $100 to have your stock one bored only to 64mm with 67mm taper... Is that even worth the performance gains?

Well i'm definitely not going to get a stock one bored. I'm getting a new one without a doubt. But with my set up i'm not sure if I should run a 68mm or a 70mm....?
