My car would pick up with it yes, I have a 102mm sitting on my bench. I don't think your setup will benefit as greatly from it, as you're not moving as much air. I would sooner spend the money on a phenolic spacer for the Maggie.

I don't see the benefit of that,very nice but a lot of cash and the stock snout goes up to 107 with no problem

Yeah, a simple boring procedure on the stock Maggie snout for $50 seems a lot cheaper than a whole new snout.

Well , the AFR heads and everything else was spec`ed by myself, except the cam, which was spec`ed by the builder, Billy Briggs. This engine was built to run to 7500 rpm through the traps in the 1/2 mile[saves a gear change]. I have run it to the limiter[7300], and disintegrated the cog belt. Joe at leftcoast 32 said it was because of the "violent on-off" hitting the limiter, so no more of that.
I am changing things up this year, I just added full 3" exhaust, and I am just going to start looking at building a new air intake.[not many avail for my Maggie vette] I will probably go ahead with a tpis 102, as this has the correct throttle opening for it, as compared to the NW 102 . As I mentioned I will pully down to a 3" or 2.9" from my 3.3" , and would like to remove the MAF, and go SD tune.
Here is a pic of the engine bay..............

And I am in the COLD Ontario unfortunately

don't understand why the NW 102 wouldn't work

LedfootLarry · 01-07-2014, 07:07 PM

The actuator motors are on opposite sides for one, the way the throttle blades flip open are opposite to each other also, although that can be changed, for my setup --TPIS

That is impressive HP with a 2.3

there are other options that give substantial results for less based of just cubes alone.

We actually tested a NW 102mm throttle body verses a stock 87mm throttle body on a 2013 CTSV last year, this particular combination was an auto and on the dyno put out 635 rwhp, when we opened the snout inlet and switched to the 102mm throttle body, it jumped up to 670 rwhp, also gained about 1.5 psi.

Well Larry, if you do put it on please get back on here and tell us what you think. I did not change my throttle body by itself, I swapped superchargers and didn't have much gain until I swapped out the throttle body, then it went from around 765 to 807 so I gained about 42 with the throttle body but my car made 756 on the 1.9 stock blower with the stock throttle body.

TPIS 102 was impossible to tune, was sent back , repaired , and still could not tune. Waiting for my refund from them for over a month ......
Installed an old NW 102 with the ls6 servo, and presto, started instantly.
