Default Upgrade throttle body or intake mani?

I've searched quite a bit online and haven't really been able to find much on this topic. Anyone make an aftermarket throttle body? I've been curious what type of gains could be made with a larger throttle body and a port matched manifold or if it would really be worth it. Would love to see some people chime in who've done this or toggled with the idea.

You could checkout badblackgs' 2uz intake thread a few spots down from this one. Not sure how compatible it'll be for a 1uz as he has a 3, but it's a starting point at least. Other than that, the only place I know that does (or has done) a full intake manifold is TTC.
