From: nothing is real unless it is observed
Makers of the AEBS cyclone intake manifold now have throttle bodies 65mm and 70mm. I ordered one today. Should have it first part of next week, I'm going to show detail on quality. I hoping its not as rough as the manifold.
Tom @ camp1320 sells them for 180 picked up for the 68mm. They look ok, but not as nice as somehing like from skunk2 or spoon or something. I've heard very little info on them and am in the process of researching these for my build up.

Definately!
But until there's more info about this TB, Maxbore will be my choice.

Just bought my 68mm in the satin color today @ camp1320. Tom hooked me up with one today. Very impressive quality, here's some pics with 3x5 cards for size reference:

yes one that's already made big enough. (No cutting a stock gasket)
hey it looks good... could we get a shot of where the cable attaches?
also, what motor is it going on? hope the install goes well
oh yeah, hella questions but is it tapered? or 68mm all around?

They also offer the 65mm size, but tom only had the 68 & 70 sizes on hand. It is 68mm all the way through(at least it looks like it...I'll measure to find out for sure). The operation (by hand) is incredibly smooth and the butterfly doesn't rub or catch anywhere. I'll work on a pick of where the cable attaches tonight. Should be on the motor by the end of next month possibly early may (Whenever I have all the parts for my build so I can just have it all built and tuned in one big swoop)....here's the build up plans for the motor:
