I'm not sure a throttle body alone would give you much of a gain. To get any real gains i believe you should pair it up with a good intake manifold.

TB can be hundreds of dollars, but unless you upgrade the intake manifold, and the intake pipe itself, you wont see much gains from it.

Type R throttle body can cost between 250-300 ...its not bad. Like CRXLVR said upgrade the manifold and intake and you'll see much better gains. I'd also upgrade the cams.

You type in all CAPS, because you're yelling???
And you typed everything in bold.

Please don't do any of those again. Also, please read the User Guidelines to understand why all of these things you did are bad (not to mention annoying):
