i believe you want a 2.75" on the TB side. so if you have 2.5" piping a 2.5->2.75" coupler

im pretty sure a 2.5" coupler will fit over a stock B18 TB

actually im 100% sure of it.....2.5 to 2.5 will work perfectly fine.

well i just checked the extra throttle body i have, and it's 2.6" in diamiter. the 2.5" coupler would not strech to fit it. if yours is 2.3", the 2.5 should fit but you know what, just to be sure, and to have spares for later, just get both. i have tons of spares, works out great at the track and dyno.
or just drive down to a place that has fittings and try a few on for size.
