Default Throttle body size for d16z6

I have done some research, but i am still unsure what make and size throttle body i should get. I have an aem short ram intake, skunk2 intake manifold, dc 4-2-1 headers, 2.25'' exhaust piping no cat, magnaflow exhaust, msd 6al ignition, msd blater 3 coil, accel 8mm wires, act stage 2 clutch, and a fidanza 7lb flywheel. I have a vtec controller and skunk2 valves and springs that i need to install, i am not sure which cam im going to buy ethier a stage 1 or stage 2. I would appreciate all the info i can get thanks.

if you go bigger than the opening of the intake manifold you have to bore the opening out to match the throttle body.

i would go with the 62mm from the integra type r b18c5 engine and stay with honda equiptment

just get an oem b series tb. i put a gsr tb on my old z6. thats up from 56mm to 60mm. in my opinion, its not really worth shelling out a lot of money for an aftermarket tb
