Throttle body upgrade

Two questions I want to upgrade my throttle body on my 2002 sport, If I do does the intake manifold have to be bored out to match the throttle body(only asking because...OK OK I used to be a ricer and on my honda I had to do this.

Also do I have to reburn my chip if I do this?

no and no.

Just wondering though, your sport has a SOHC? Didn't think there was an aftermarket TB out for the SOHC.
 






Yeah it's a SOHC, Someone told me that BBK has one for my truck. However I didn't look into at all yet, They could be wrong.
 






I think you have many things that can be upgraded before you get the the MAF and TB. They are the larger size that everyone else wants. You should just get the S/C from EE!
 






S/C ? I'm not sure what that is, And what does it do?

EDIT>> Oh ok Supercharger... Ok I'm still half asleep!
 






As far as I know BBK only has the unit for the OHV, not the SOHC.

Thus, this thread is moot ;)
 






also, the BBK is a 66mm. im pretty sure (but not certain) that the stock SOHC throttle body is a 65mm just like the 5 liter.
 












What is the stock TB size on OHV?
 






58 I believe.
