Default Anyone with a APR motorsport manifold?

I am trying to get to the bottom of something, I bought an APR Motorsport manifold and then a stock R32 Throttle body and the bolt pattern is slightly different. I talked to APR and they said the stock R32 TB does not work, it has to be machined. This sounds very peculiar, and doesnt seem to make a whole lot of sense considering the hole patterns are so close (2.75" vs 3.00").

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Carl

Why would it fit? R32 is a whole different motor (3.2)

Default they are correct - you need to 'elongate' the holes (edit) >

in the throttle body to mate with the taps in the manifold, or maybe mill some kind of adapter - Ross Machine Racing may be able to help, as might 034.. Naturally, if you'd bought the TB from APR at the same time as the manifold, it would have been machined to fit - might just do that and re-sell your R32.

Default Your right but the intake manifold is designed around the R32 (3") throttle body

but apparently a modified R32 TB.
