|  lsvtec intake Well I'm looking for so advice I have a ls vtec I have put together and I have two intakes to use a 72mm ericks racing throttle body on a type r intake but isn't bored out to match. Then I have a type r intake with a 75mm edelbrock throttle body with a adapter plate welded on and bored out but the sensor is welded on the back of the intake is welded up so I don't know how it it will idle on warm up anyone's input would be great thanks |

| If the motor is stock, then run a stock TB. If you had some cams and head work done the bigger TB would be beneficial. |

| Ok well its not stock at all... It has been built 11.5 to 1 comp forged rods port polished head stage 2 cams... Maybe I should ask a different question. On the 75mm the sensor on the back of the Intake is welded up so will it idle wrong on warm up |

| are you talking about the IACV (idle air control valve) if so, you need it! if its a drag car then plug it up, but if its your DD then you need to run it |

| Use the 72mm TB with the Type R manifold and port match it yourself. A 75mm TB would suit a turbo motor better anyway. Plus the intake with the welded up holes will give you a terrible idle...if it even idles. |
