I don't have enough posts yet to ask in the forsale forum, but there is a 65mm AU TB forsale, would this fit my EF V8 and would I gain anything from it, I still have the stock MAF but when I can spare the cash will be getting one from MrLandau, if he still has them.

As I mentioned before - the MAF will need to be 5 - 10mm larger than the throttle body or it will become a restriction. The only restriction you want on the intake tract is the throttle body. But having said that - $150 for a 65mm throttle body is a great price (looking at over $400 for an aftermarket one) and you can always step up the MAF size after. Just don't expect the car to be radically changed with just a throttle body change - only your throttle response will change.

I haven't played with the Modular's yet Darren. Sean Hyland motorsport is the place to go for them - he has just released a book purely on modding the modulars (abiet American versions) and is the industry leader in aftermarkey parts for them. I still have a few cars to fill my wish list before I look at the modular versions - Anyone know where ELGT number 33 is?
