TB w/GM SC
Monday, February 20, 2006 3:57 PM
Ok I would like to hear some opinions on this topic from the S/Ced people.

I am debating on either a (Reveco's)57mm or (Mantapart's)60mm TB.

Of these two which would be a wiser choice, consider volumetric efficiency as well. I do have the GM S/C and some will say bigger is the way to go. Going this big, will I really move the power band that much even though I'm S/Ced or will it improve from idle to 6500 rpms?
Any input will be appreciated.

Thanks for the help!

I'd go with the 62mm for sure.

The bigger the better with the supercharger, over the entire power band. However, if you go bigger than a 62mm you will need to port the inlet to the blower.

I've heard mixed reviews on the RSM 62mm one. But what holds me back is the fact it is 62mm (some say 61mm).
The S/C inlet is 60mm that 1-2mm less will act like a wall on its edges when air goes in. So air will not go in to smooth.
What I do like is that both are taperd, so the opening will accept lots of incoming air in.

The Reveco is cheaper, it will be new.

Thanks people
If any more input, I'll gladly accept.
