throttle body

i am having a custom intake manifold made for my car and i am in need of a larger throttle body. does anyone know if any of the previous honda throttle bodies are compatible with our cars. or does anyone know of an aftermarket one that can be installed?

If you were to bore your stock throttle body, would that help? Or would it have to be bigger than that? I dunno, just an idea!

problem with boring our throttle body is that apparently because of the design it allows for minimal boring if any...at least thats the info i got from my machine shop.
