Is the DE TB bigger? I thought the HR had a larger diameter TB.

I'm not sure about swappable parts just yet. I would hope that the Alternator, Start, INjectors, coil packs are the same.
the DE TB is ~69mm diameter and the HR is smaller but Dual.

Would be very curious to see more details on this, if this did or did not make more power than the single TB.

So may I assume that the intake manifolds are interchangable?

I wont have the longblock in my hands until Labor day weekend.
I don't even know anyone with a VQ37 so that I can take a peak under the hood, Although ANdy is picking up his GTR on Monday. I really doubt he'll let me under the under hood to pull the plenum and lower intake manifild off.

Would that even work/fit?
