butter makes the popcorn soggy. i like the machine made butter flavored popcorn the best.
there is not nearly enough drama in this thread; my popcorn is getting stale.
for my $.02, the throttle body should be able to flow more than the engine can possibly use, because it is probably not 100% efficient and i wouldn't want it to be a possible restriction. at the same time, a throttle body that flows way more than the engine could ever hope to use does no good.
so in my case, with a 410 and a max rpm of 6000, a 75 is correct, because it easily flows more than the 712 my motor will be able to use, but not so much that 1/2 throttle is effectively WOT as far as my motor's needs are concerned. if we believe accufab's information that a 90mm throttle body flows 1369 cfm, then that is almost twice as much as my needs of closer to 700 cfm, so about 1/2 throttle on a 90mm would be giving my motor all the air it can handle.
