Default 60MM or 62MM throttle body for D16Z6?

I have both a 60MM and a 62 MM throttle body for my D16Z6. Currently the engine only has just bolt ons....

AEM CAI, header, Y8 manifold, cam gear, Hondata gasket, and VAFC. I would like to run the ITR 62MM throttle body, but obviously with stock internals I dont want to go too big. opinions? Advice? (yes it will be port matched)

I would go with the 62mm tb. It isn't too big as to where it wouldn't help you any. If your choices were a 60 or 70 I would say 60, but 62 would be a good size I think.

the 62mm TB isnt that big. It would be ok with what you have.
The 60mm wouldnt be that bad either.

Just keep in mind that if you have a big bore TB that is way too big, you'll loose the velocity of air coming into the engine and can lose power.
Or at least lose power at the bottom end, but gain it at top end.
