throttle body on turbocharged car
When you have a turbocharged full modded car with an bigger intake manifold. Is it smart to buy also a bigger throttle body or doesn't that help much to increase horsepower?

I'm not sure about actually hp increases, but you need to size the throttle body based on the size of your IC piping.

more air you can get to the cylinders the more power you will make. but you dont need anything over kill a 70mm-74mm t/body some where on that area will do fine

you can go a little over. just get your intake manifold ported to help with the flow..

OK here is another question: What about when you are daily driving out of boost? would a larger throttle body increase throttle response until you hit boost?
