Are bigger throttle bodies useless on stock engines?

do you also have stock airfilter intake routing, stock cat, stock exhust? One component alone will not make the car, but combine them. Lan ahead your components, and make the most of all of them.

It's an easy install but can go bad if the bolts don't want to come off.
