Did you use RTV to attach the TB to the IM?
I've been having some weird high idle issues since I swapped manifolds and I'm having a hard time pinpointing a leak. That was going to be my next step!

The little idle adjustment screw above the TB inlet has a drilled passage all the way to the gasket at the back. There's a machined slot it intersects that may be uncovered in some cases and bleed air. Put some RTV in the end of the slot and put the throttle body back on and it solves it.

if you're really keen on working out if the rad protector jazz will block airflow (or how much, more the case) you can just measure one of the holes and calculate the area.
Then count how many holes there are for a set area (like 10cm^2 or something)
total area - hole area = blocked area
then you can calc how much of a % that is on the total.

Yep I have been thinking about the ACT XTSS. I really want a disc style over a 6-puck, but I also don't want something that's going to hold me back in the future. A friend of mine just dyno'd his Miata with a similar build at 324hp/325 ft-lbs at the wheels before he ran out of fuel and I have more fuel flow potential. I want to make a hero number on the dyno but then dial it back down around 300hp where you are dleavitt I think.
