and as for twin throttle bodies, good luck and post all pictures here please...

Nar its only a single, you cant stick 2 sets of extractors on a motor to take away the exhaust fumes so you are only allowed one inlet for the air to come in.

i have seen them around!

are you trying to say there would be no increase?
or that they dont make them?
or, that it wouldnt help anymore then a single ported etc...

It's all about how much air you can get running through the engine.

IMO the only thing increasing the throttle body size whether by making it bigger or splitting into two seperate t/b's. Is only going to increase your throttle response, because its allowing more air to enter the engine faster.

Combine it with a better flowing head, inlet etc and it'd make more of a difference.

Dual would help more because when you think about it 2x 48mm is better then 1x 78mm.. Thats guessing at sizes. But you get my drift?
