I just went through this decision with Tony and he recommended the 92mm TB over the 100. With the 100, you render the O ring useless and have to use a paper gasket but moreover, the net benefit is almost nill in terms of flow differences. Both Nick Williams and RevXtreme make quality 92MM pieces.

Pretty much covered in the above post. 100mm leaves too thin of a seal and with the kind of boost you plan on putiing out, I don't think it would hold.
I'm sure the 90mm will more than adequate for your needs since you'll be FI anyway.
Hopefully, you'll figure out some way to control the boost for the street and track use.

Just get a LS2 TB Bill.
Don, do you recomend pulling the top orange gasket and using Orange Slicone between the upper and lower? Do you guys install the burst panels?

That's OntarioVettes Fast, i just installed the burstpanels and put new gasketing on the top to middle portion-I'm probably going to take it apart again and just use orange silicone instead.

The belt issue look's awesome-Frank''s been, to Mosport for some road racing, drove the car to Carlisle and back and the belt looks like new!
And when you get on the gas just a tad those 345's in back don't stand a chance-they go up in smoke with ease!
I'm finally getting a chance to get to work on my car-hopefully it will be running this weekend!
