Okay everyone, this is going to sound ridiculous but it came to me in a dream.

I dont even think its possible. But still, okay ill explain..

so i dreamt that i put a twin throttle body on my vy right, i had the first one connected to the original airbox and then( this is the crazy part) i had the second one running pvc piping all the way down to where the foglights are. like some sort of crazy cold air intake. I started to think this might be possible. Of course with the addition of the maf sensor and a pod filter somewhere to filter that second hole.

But is this possible? Is it a good idea?
Let me know.

But you could just glue two v8's together and have 16 cylinders!

You'd need a pretty warm ecotec before needing to look at tin TB's.

Twin TB's have been done on ecotec's on this forum a few times, they seem to improve throttle response nicely, but from what I've read are a pain to get tuned properly, etc.

Why would you run them to two different spots?
It would acheive nothing. You're better of doing it the same way everyone else does it.

I'd be sorting out your exhaust, cam and tune first.
