Default 72mm tb mating w/ skunk2 manifold on 00 GSR...questions!

i just got my 72mm throttlebody. Tried to put the damn thing on. However i think that the skunk2 intake manifold's hole isn't near close at 72mm...should i take it to the machineshop and bore it out to match the tb?

Go to the junkyard and get a bunch of practice parts. Or you can be like me and just have your way with your parent's dead car

damn that is a big tb. my friend had a 70mm on his b16 with a t3 turbo and it was making him bog. when he put the 68mm one one he was running fine again. hope you have a big turbo for that thing.
