Well, a ported throttle body will help out with your throttle response, as well as free up a few more ponies. Lightweight flywheel will get your engine revving faster, although I wouldn't recommend one of them unless you don't plan on going to the strip.

What MM are the throttle bodys from factory? I've seen some TB's advertised as 80MM and 90MM I think....but wasn't sure how much to go. On my Z28, the factory bore is 48MM and I upgraded to a 52MM, I noticed alot in thottle response. So, what MM should I go with on my TA?

Do a lightweight flywheel and a underdrive pulley and it will rev faster in neutral...and you might get 10rwhp out of it
