Default Throttle body and Intake manifold for turbo?

This might get some flames but whats a good size throttle body to run if you are going turbo? Right now we do not have the money for a turbo so for the next month the throttle body will just be another part. i was also wondering about intake manifolds. Since we will be installing the Tb and IM without turbo, is there going to be a huge difference when we do install a turbo? This setup will be going onto a b16. Thanks.

Josh

I was told that on turbo aplication...a bigger tb does nothing.

Reason for this is that if boost gauge reads off of your intake manifold and reads a constant 10psi, the intake is presurized what difference does a bigger tb make?

depending on the intake you pick...some will suck *** non turbo but will be great with turbo. I'm going with the victor x mani. venom is nice but it's like $300 more, i guess cuz it blings, idk. havent used either so i guess i can't compare them.
