The 65mm TB has proven to be to much for anything other than a highly modified SE or SVT, 70mm is just worse yet on anything but a 3 oh or a very heavy modded 2.5.

All are bigger restrictions then the stock 60mm unit!!! Plus expect to have to modify & tune it. Not a BOLT-ON! 2000 SVT #674 - Check it out!
