If memory serves me right the air restrictor was 67mm and was fit within the airbox of the STR1 to reduce potential power production.

 

Easier one then: Give me a list of all current drivers who have raced with the power of all three of the V8s on offer by next years manufacturers (Renault, Ferrari, Mercedes). Bonus points if you can give me the full names of the current engines.

Nope, there was an air restrictor in the airbox - I want the measurement of this restrictor.

We now have the rev limit (however this was modified in season to help Toro Rosso keep pace with their rivals as the V8's went through intense development around them). 

Just the parity measurement to go.

Almost all the details I'm after.

The parentage is spot on.
The rev limit is not quite right
You're still missing the "measurements to ensure parity"

While sticking with Toro Rosso, what was odd about their car in 2006. I'm looking for measurements to ensure parity, limits imposed on power producing parts in the engine and the parentage of it's chassis.

Scuderia Toro Rosso STR3 from 2008. 

The spoon in the front wing and bridge give it away.

Hello.

It must be said that everything that is done here is largely done on a far larger scale at a number of F1 dedicated forums all over the internet. While it's been fun popping my head in through the door and throwing down some information here and there I've lost much of my interest frequenting here as the place dies over my summer period and it's hard to bring myself back to a quiet piece of the intertubes while I have so many other things going on.

If we turn up elsewhere I may pop my head in through the door from time to time but this wee union is no longer able to sustain itself unfortunately.
