I am going to be running nicks 103 boosted version however look forward to the release of an even larger setup. When attempting to max effort a top mount/twin screw the bigger the better!

What is this NW 103? The only one I know of is the NW103 for the gen 5 LT motors. Is there another option?

Yes, I’ve been in contact with nick and I ended up picking up one from him which is designed for the 5th gen LS3 platform. It should be shipping middle of next week. He is also developing more larger options as we speak.

105mm and 108mm options should become available. Big build will utilize this. Nick Williams pricing point though ��IMO. Esp for most of the people using it, it’s a waste of money. A 90mm TB (92mm really) should glow enough to operate a 440CI motor based of mathematical calculations. Now nobody can assume all set ups and motors are equal because facts are they are not. More for throttle response. Maybe 2-3hp pick up. Bigger cube motors will do much better with better air flow. Boosted cars do pick up but remember it’s a big increase in flow over an N/A set up.

Most definitely! The non-boosted will definitely start having shutdown problems at high boost. Nick William's will convert them for a decent price. My boost modded one works great.

We had a problem with mine staying open past 7200 rpm. I run it to 8,000 on a ported stock tb.
