someone call.. Ive only seen throttle bodys done on a turbo once.. and I dont see the point.. dont think you would get any gains... besides they normally come with their own ecu (webber alpha?) and I doubt that this could run a turbo... dont ask me though... I fix computers not build engines..

SBD used to be the best.. or speak to Webber... would have thought that you could get better gains spending the money on an ecu replacement... tek 1 / 2 - link etc
