bigger throttle body worth anything?

is a bigger t/b worth anything in hp or tq? ive got a 02 5.3 with a air intake and exhaust and im thinking of a cam change and long tubes later but was wondering if a t/b would be worth getting.

I wouldnt waste the money on the 80mm. Just get a good p&p one or do it youself.

I like mine! It was expensive but I have plans for a charger so I think the 80mm will help more, later on!
It does a cool vaccum sound also!

I say just port the stocker your self. Not a hard job to do. The stock TB should flow more then enough.

A cat (Paul) over on LS1truck.com dyno'd ~6rwhp gain with his. But his torque didn't go up. I just don't think it is worth it.
