TPI plenum TB holes siamesed???

Been awhile since I messed with TPI. My last TPI I ported the plenum and siamesed the runner pair exits with good results. Later I saw someone siamese the throttle body holes and I wondered how that affected the tpi. Now it looks like I'll have another chance to mess with a TPI and I am debating on doing it.

I can't see it having any particular effect
Your flow restriction is the TB bores so as long as the holes in the plenum are larger (whether one hole or two ) should make no difference
I suspect you would have to go to a mono -blade TB for it to actually be useful
