Default throttle bodies (64mm to 68mm)

What are you guys thoughts i need something to go with my new skunk IM and this would be the perfect time to upgrade from the gsr. Opinions are welcome, what size is too big? i am planning on having it port matched to the intake manifold, but where is the cheapest place on the net to pick up something new or used it doesn't matter.

thanks alot
matt

i like 68mm, i think 70mm is oversized if u have a 1.8

64mm only if your NOT going big cams (JUN, TODA, SKUNK2)

62-64 is just fine.
I run the biggest cams toda makes and I have no problems with the stock 62mm
itr tb. Personally I think money is best spent elsewhere, but since you have a
gsr tb, perhaps save some $$ and just have it overbored.

I am thinking of boring out the Spoon TB I have to 68mm at the plate for better highend power. Because the Spoon TB didn't really do much beside giving me a tiny little better throttle response.

The largest you will be able to bore out a stock TB is about 64-65mm
