45mm bodies are ok for an atmo 8v subject to spec. I've used 45mm bodies both choked down to 38mm and as they come, with very little to choose between them...thats on 190hp spec 1800's. If it's more road spec then a 40 or 42mm body is more than enough subject to the final spec.

If they do not work, it was a cheap test. want another picture? Please note that it is in the middle of the buildup, so not everything is where it should be or is mounted correctly, ... so if you see something wrong: it will be fixed. Sorry for the short first post, I'm still at the office...

Side note on the ITB: when put under boost they were leaking everywhere up to a point where we ran out of options to get it sealed. Butterflies removed, all holes welded so now it is an expensive intake manifold... Turbo is a Comp Turbo (spec +400 hp), manifold is from SPA Turbo straight from Brazil. Someone asked pictures:
