Default turbo D16 which size throttle body and which intake mani?

i was planning on upgrading the throttle body and getting a much more higher performance intake manifold.

i am novice to this parts. what recommendation would you say i should really get on the size of the throttle body?
also i have seen skunk2 and blox have these parts. which one in your opinion is better?

my engine. boosted D16a6.

you can just go with stock if you want under 300hp or so.

Edelbrock intake manifolds work pretty good.

i was told that the intake manifold comes very close to the firewall. how would this work with my intake pipe from the i/c? would i need to mod it or will it still fit fine?

i have a 1991 4wd wagon ef d16a6 boosted.

unless you going to boost 350whp or more, i wouldnt bother with the TB or intake mani

on boosted aplications, its not a big difference on nomal boost, since the air is forced inducted.
once you go into big hp aplications, then it matters

It does come close to the firewall, but it also angles the TB back forward. Your current upper charge pipe will still work.
