Same 55mm from Howell. I think it's just a difference in measuring.

Anyone know from experience if this 56mm bored TB makes a noticable power boost over the stock TB.

Yeah I noticed the difference, and you can hear the motor just sucking the air in. Definately worth the $150 I paid for it. ($50 used TB, $100 Howell porting)

in the voice of Mr. Burns .... Agreed! Of course you should have a after market intake too.

Two bolts and a couple of torx head screws. Easy as long as you have a set of torx head screw drivers. I do suggest getting a new TB gasket for the install, only a few bucks at SATAN. Also do the Throttle plate adjustment when you are done.

What HP rating do they have?

Intall is easy but getting the sensors off your old TB and put on your new TB might be hard. I had to take mine to the mitsu dealer to have them removed. They used an impact driver. They did it for free just had a make a trip down there.

That was the hardest part.

Thura you whoos, can't you turn a torx screwdriver emoji. I actually did the install on a lunch hour. Ran home and did it.

The $279 is a price for a new TB. I picked up a used Throttle body for $50. Then sent it to Howell to do the porting for $100. If you find yourself a used TB somewhere and send it to Howell/AFX you will be okay.
