The 16V already has a TB with the secondary(larger) valve sized at 52mm,
I'm fairly certain, although I haven't measured mine. The stock 8V uses a
44mm secondary, while the Audi one uses a 52mm secondary. I know these for
certain, measured them myself. I'm pretty sure the only way to get a larger
TB for the 16V is to go with a big bore from Velocity. But I don't think
it'll net much hp. There's other things that need to be improved first.
