go with a 65 mm tb. the 70 is to big IMO. im switching from the 70 to a 65 as soon as the package arives.

Check my sig. I've got the 70mm. I like it just fine. I picked up about 15 hp by bolting on a Cobra intake and 1.7 rr's. You'll see about the same. Heads will be the bottle neck now,not the intake.

70mm throttle body is to big with that small setup. a 65 is all you need. even with heads you a 65 will not hurt you

70mm tb is fine. Gping to a smaller 65mm tb would waste money and zero gain. Keep the 70, though i'd personally do a 75mm since that what matches the inlet.

I'd expect 12-15hp with the tb and manifold with gains from 3000 and up. Might lose a tad under 3000, but who cares.
