Default Biggest throttle body size that will fit OEM manfiold

How big can you open up the OEM manifold(non-DBW), without messing with the IACV ports? Seems very little people run throttle bodies over 64mm. Just wondering if the manifold was the reason for this.

I've done a lot of searching with zero results.

Is it 74mm at the IM side? I keep seeing people stating that they have a 70mm TB, yet the IM side of the TB is only 64mm. I guess some people don't know that the smallest part of the TB is the real size, not the opening.

He's boosted so gains won't really reflect what NA gains would be, if any.

His IM is port matched to his TB so there the same size.

Sorry this is the only pic I have before it was installed. I purchased a spare OEM intake manifold and had it shipped to Full Blown. They did the porting of the IM and supplied the 74mm throttle body also.



I don't have a before and after comparison in hp #'s as I did my build all at once plus I'm boosted now. I did make 511 WHP @ 15 PSI. (stocked/head block)
