Why? If anything a smaller TB would offer sharper throttle responce.

The stock TB is HUGE for the motor. 20% throttle is enough for upto arround 4500rpm iirc.

The throttle body is already way bigger than it needs to be. Myself and others have tried bigger throttle bodies and have either not gained or actually lost power (go figure).
