Hi Ryan

We are run stock throttle body at 555.5bhp and many people running stock throttle body beyond 700bhp without the single issue

For bling effect I would rather spend on the painting existing throttle body,will looks better and will be effective too

Going with larger throttle body,this is very popular mod on the K20(Honda engines),almost everyone running one who have NA,we are running on K20 382bhp on stock inlet and stock throttle body and seen difference between the throttle body around 5-10bhp on mapped car,you will need to match yours inlet manifold to suit this throttle body or at least to use throttle body spacers

Really Ryan,if you want "bling" please have look on Process West Corsa Velloce,agree is expensive,but looks so awesome

Thanks,Jura

A larger tb also reduces throttle resolution come mapping time, making the throttle response not as sharp. Really no need to change best option would be to get yours cleaned up and polished for a bling finish.
