Thread: Billet 78mm TB - looks sweet

I saw that yesterday. Can you imagine the air flow that could go through that thing? Thing does look really sweet though, but I think I'll just stick with a ported option for now.

My N* is plenty, but if I didn't have it and wanted bigger TB, that one looks perfect.

NICE! now someone rain on my parade and say it will not fit an 04+. haha.

How did I know you were going to be the one to bust my bubble, haha jk jk.

coolness factor.

Im suprised it is finally out! They showed pics of that a year ago. That price is really good also as I recall it being mentioned to be around the $450 range. Its still a chunk of change but a great deal for a bolt on throttle body. The 78mm helps too, with the Eaton blowers all the air you can throw at them helps, thats why I will have a T70 feeding mine this year . Wbody store also said a year ago when these pics were released that they were working on one also but I havent seen or heard anything about it since. If $350 is still more than you want to spend for a big throttle body there are 78mm ported LS1 and N* throttle bodies out there between $100-$175 but you still need the adapter. I am glad to see this finally out on the market, definately long overdue and a great price to go with it.

What do you find lame about that TB? It's a large billet TB and something that doesn't require an adapter plate or electical connectors and uses stock sensors.

haha, hey its all good. I like it but prolly would spend my money engine wise elsewhere also.

I use an 80mm LS1 TB maybe I'll get oen ane bore it out 2mm !

I acutally had a FAST 90mm one, but thought there would be wicked tip in and after I had the blower ported to 80mm ... I was thinking an extra 10mm over that would be A LOT to take out, like enough to make crack the case or something. I'm happy with an 80mm one...for now anyway. (Even though my car is in peices !!!)

I actually got to handle TDC's new Billet when I was down in KC last weekend. That puppy is SWEET! It truly is SOLID aluminium carved into a stock looking TB. Its heavy duty no doubt! And yes it would replace having the need for a TB Spacer for sure!!

Maybe it would be something worth looking at instead of a N* or something else?

so are they going to ported housing to 78mm?
