Default Throttle body or not?

I'm looking to get more power out of my d16y8. I have CAI and exhaust, and want to get a little more. I've heard the 4-2-1 header adds around 6. I also heard the inatke manifold can add 10. Is that true? I've seen it on sale with a throttle body too, will that help, or is it not a good horsepower to buck ratio?

upgrade ur suspension stuff first and prepare for the turbo or upgrade stuff like fuel pump... radiator... radiator actually would be a good mod cause it will give u performance, looks, and also the best thing... reliability
