I wouldn't be surprised if the TB was different than 72mm, as it'* 'fly by wire'. This means it'* at least a different TB than the rest of the Northstar clan. Not necessarily bigger, but it has to be different to be servo driven rather than cable.

It'd be nice to have one of our GXP'* meausre this for us HINT HINT.

Or Scott.

stock tb ranges from 74-76, only the VVT northstars got the 80mm

whats the elevation? you should be in the mid 14'*...but with only 780 miles, thats WAY to early to be racing, give it 5,000 and ill bet it runs stronger, and even better yet at 20k
