Default aftermarket throttle body?

Has any one ever try using a bigger throttle body before?

I belive Mike Carlin's Supra is running mustang throtle body or something. Check out his write-up on:

www.t04r.com

They had a CNC-machined flange made to mount the manifold to the head. With that, it was not too difficult to fabricate, just very time consuming to make it right the first time. We mated a Mustang 90mm throttle body to the intake manifold and it was then complete.

You'll only go slower if you put a bigger one...
