Default Throttle Body Questions

I have a 98 WS6 A4 and was wondering how big the stock TB is. I can get a GTO TB for free and was wondering if it would benifit me, if i could swap it on, and if so do i have to put my TSP sensor in it. Any info is helpfull.



My only power mods this far are:
SLP lid
Magnaflow catback

04 is the same size..05 is larger(90MM)..you would need an intake which would accept the larger TB like the LS2 intake..I can't remember if the GTO has a fly by wire throttle body or not..I think it does..a senior moment (brain fart)has struck me...
