G'day,

I was after some opinions on wether to fit double standard TB's to try and retain factory cruise and traction control or go for a large single (90mm).

The single option will look better (less messy), but I can probably make the twin setup look okay also with a cover or something.

If I go the twin option I was thinking of having twin filters into one 100mm pipe, split into two again to the TB's back into one 100mm custom intake to the supercharger with the second TB as a slave to the first.

Like to know what other peoples thoughts are.

Cheers.

have you fitted a vac gauge between the throttle body and supercharger to see if it is actually restrictive?

ok not sure if this is the right place but im fabricating my own dual intake manifold and running 2 standard throttles with 2 air flow sensors, i was basicaly going to wire them so they join each other, now my question is will the stock ecu handle this or do i have to run an aftermarket ecu or mapless airflow sensor

You will be splitting the voltage across 2 sensors . Pretty sure its not that simple .

have you thought about running a lay shaft and turning the supercharger around. I've been thinking about this for my whipple but have been too busy at work to start on it.

A lot of money, and a lot of effort.
Plus you have to order the supercharger to run backwards (ie, spin in the opposite direction)
