60 mm

Going from 60 mm (2.362 in) to 65 mm (2.559 in) is only 5 mm (.19685 - just over 3/16 in). It doesn't sound like much, but it nets 14.79 % more area. This added area increases throttle response on tip in and allows more flow. The throttle response is what most people notice right away, until they get used to it again. The 4-7 more wheel horsepower almost all the way across the rev range doesn't hurt either. :smokin:

[wannabfast]

thats funky.. cause my stock one i guess is 59mm.. so that would be like me going up to 74mm or something like that

40.828% more area :bling:

:drool: is right

[Shrep]

A 40% increase in airflow is insane...that's gotta be worth some serious torque figures... :eek:

[youngin]

so what your saying is, its worth it for me to buy a 67mm tb.. youve convinced me, screw fixin my bumper :).

[eXtreMX-6]

Is it really worth getting a 67mm over a 65mm in the kl03 because of the restriction in the VAF since the VAF is only 65 mm?

[Shrep]

CZT claims an additional 2-3 whp for the 67 over the 65.
