Default Throttle body upgrade

Had a question about upgrading a throttle body on a 2003 civic with a d17a2. Cannot seem to find throttle bodies made for this application was curious to see if anyone knew of any company that made them or of possible swaps from other civics.

There's really no point to upgrading just the throttle body. Its not going to provide any performance gains.

There was an option or two, but I haven't seen them available for years.
