intake manifold and throttle body

i was wondering if buying an d16z6 intake manifold for my d16y7 is worth forty bucks? or is it not going to make enough of a difference? if not is there a place that has good deals on some high-pro intake manifolds?

also i dont know how big the stock throttle body is but im looking at getting a bigger one. how big should i go?

-thanks

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the y7 is the e-vtec, correct? Either way, I know that the y8 mani is one of the best stock ones out there, but not sure about the z6 mani.

Also, I know that getting a bigger TB on that motor isn't going to really do anything, especially without port-matching.

Ok. The D16Y7 is the 96-00 Civic 1.6L NON vtec engine.

A Y8 intake manifold, throttle body and intake would be needed to complete the swap.
