I can tell you the 103 T.B. will be a waste of money unless you are going big CI motor and with a big blower are big turbo set up.

To many of these motors out here running the stock T.B. and making all the power that your car can make.

Also here if you are thinking more on the 103 t.b. I would talk with your tuner and get his thinking on that move. A ton of tuners has had a really PITA tuning these bigger t.b. on these cars.

Really no need to put one more pita problem on this when there is no really need for it. Now a ported stock t.b. from that CO yes on that intake yes. But if they don't have the problem fixed on it yet. Look at checking all the intake bolts all the time due to coming loose on the intake really bad.. Robert
