Just wondering what size the vs v6 throttle bodys are? I know that the vn v6 to vr v6 are 60mm but I heard that the vs v6 is 65mm like the v8s? Im sure this isnt true but was wondering anyway.

Correct. The Ecotech uses a 64mm throttle and the 5.0lt a 65mm.

o.k then, the next question would be, does the ecotech throttle body go onto vn-vr? I dont see why it wouldnt.

Nope. the VS is different to VN-VR. Only the VS V8 is the same as VN-VR V6 and V8 Commodores.

No gains to be had from changing the throttle body unless you have heads done, a cam, or forced induction. On top of that, if you change it without a tune it runs weird (essentially more air for less throttle/fuel, so the AFRs are all out of whack).

Don't waste your time with ebay chips either. The1, Delcowizzid, or Mace can sort you out.
