yea it will all work well together. Intake and throttle body would be best. But you can still use the stock intake. Stock intake is good for low end power below 4K. If you cut the runners and port it out. You’ll loose some low end but gain top it. Or buy a new intake and get a benefit of both

I plan to keep it below 4K 95% of the time so I'm not gonna change the intake. Is the 52 mm throttle body the big gulp one? I've been looking at it for a while.

yea. You got a 318 so you would probably be better off with a 50mm but the 52mm will work just fine.

I just looked. You right I didn’t notice that before. But before I pull the trigger. I’m going to look around on Facebook and see if I can pick up a used one cheap.

So you think that the stock 50mm throttle body would be better for me?

the stock is actually 48. It’s 50 at the top but tapers to 48 after the blades.
