Default 4" Coupler to Airbridge

Hello here is an issue I'm having. I have a 2000 C5 with a Nick Williams 102mm (about 4.25") throttle body. I can't seem to find a coupler anywhere that will connect it to the stock airbridge. I would consider a Vararam airbridge but not sure that will solve my problem b/c don't know the dimensions of the Vararam and can't seem to get anyone to email me back any info on it. Any suggestions???

FWIW, I have a 90mm LS2 TB mated to a vararam airbridge and it I did not need a reducer in the silicone coupler, and your NW TB should be the same scenario.

Do you know what size the opening to your vararam measures, that's what I'm wondering?

Not without disassembling it and measuring.

Call Vararam directly.

What intake manifold are you using a NW 102TB on? If it's a FAST 102 then it would be suggested to dump the stock LS1 air bridge anyways to something bigger.

I have a ported Dorman LS2 intake, ported LS2 TB and a stock LS3 air bridge/card MAF. Stock LS3 air bridge and card MAF made more power than a LS1/6 Halltech and stock LS6 MAF.
