What say you to the usefulness of a 70mm throttle body for a turbo 3
rotor? What size is ideal? Seems I remember some discussion on this
previously.

In an aircraft with Tracy's computer any pressure drop across the throttle
body is a loss of power. The bigger the better up to the point where
you cannot measure the pressure drop. I guess around 100 mm to be that
point.

Marc,

I'm going with a TWM 3003 throttle body set up.  It will have 3 -48 mm horns
that will tie into a plenum from the turbo. Injectors will be 3  72 lb at
45.5. It will have the map referenced regulator. This isn't a running set
up, but it is what I'm going with.
