Default Bigger TB really worth it?

Ive got an H22A that Im building, pretty much stock minus the valvetrain and the S2 pro 1 cams, I/H/E, pulleys, Hondata.

Ive got a BDL 68mm throttle body sitting here and Im contemplating installing it. Is it really going to be worth it though? Im using a stock IM and Im going to be road racing this car more than drag so if I make an extra 5hp up top I dont think its worth my time and money. Id rather sell it and buy something of more need to my car.

Opinions?

so you've got it laying around? it only takes like 20 minutes to install one and you already paid for it. what do you have to lose? sell it to me.

I have a 70mm tb on my car.

According to good sources the h22 needs plenty of air, but I never did a back to back dyno of it vs the stock....hmmm

If nothing else it will give you faster throttle response...so if that's something you want then go for it.
