I'm still trying to pick a TB for my combo. I had pretty much settled on a 65 but then I ran across the MAC 70mm that is cheap and has a plate.
I've heard that 70 & up can hurt low end. I autocross alot and don't want to lose any of that grunt coming out of the corners. Since I will have much more hp I'm thinking that I wouldn't notice it too much.
I also think I'm on the edge of moving up from a 65 anyway.

Anybody have an opinion on the MAC, 70mm size, or what your car did when you changed?

Thanks,
Dan
