The 2.0 plenum is larger, but it's design is the least effective of all the plenums, even on larger displacement engines. Design overcomes size in this situation.

Boring out the stock T/B without altering the engine and the rest of the intake system only HURTS drivability, especially throttle response. Been there, done that.

is air flow of the plenum ineffective becouse of shape (boxy/not smooth air flow) or other factor/s? if so has any one messed with upgrading negatives of 2.0 plenum?

mostly just curious (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
