Whatever happened to that long thread about TB sizes and flow?

And there were no side effects from the bigger TB on a daily driver? That seems kinda key to me.

If someone talks about a big difference in practice vs theory, I would ask for facts backing what was found during practice (dyno runs with both set-ups from the same session and with the car not coming unstrapped or being changed otherwise). Also, candid opinions about daily drivability would be nice too.

Who is this 'source'? I think I have a good idea who....

I like JT's thinking...go figure

Let's take a big EFI intake like the Victor 5.0 where the actual inlet (just after the throttle body bolt holes) is around 65mm, or a bit less. How is a 75 or 90mm throttle body helping the case? The intake can only take in so much. And yet I see people saying get the 75 or even 90 mm for 302's and some strokers (non-351 based).

Not all XXmm throttle bodies flow the same. One 65mm doesn't flow as much as another 65mm.

I have yet to see a definitive dyno run that showed an actual gain without some changes in between runs. Of all the time I have been on stangnet, I'm still searching...

You would think by now something would come up without other variables besides just a throttle body swap.

How can you get gains across the rpm range, like on a dyno for example that starts at 2,000 rpm. On a 302 that would imply that a 65mm couldn't flow at 2,000 rpm but a 75mm throttle body could flow plenty at 6,000 rpm. That does not make sense. Take a look at the thread I got above that JT posted on why gains are seen 'across the board'...
