i dont know i have a set up kinda like your i had 19lb injectors turned up to 42 lbs and 65 mm throttle body and it ran like a champ, i just rebuilt motor and put my 65 back on and 24 lb injectors and it feels a little weeker, also before with old motor i put my 70mm on and it was weeker on bottom end and maybe a tad better on top end

I dont think the 65mm is a problem. 65 should be find.

65mm way better than the stock 52mm right.

what did you exspect from the motorcycle, the car may have 3 times the hp, but is 6 times the weight to carry.

I have measured stock TBs anywhere from 58mm to a true 62mm..........they vary. I don't think the 65mm is hurting you much if any.
