Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem.

Having a big TB is pointless, unless you have your intake manifold ported to match the TB.

Another mod that should be last on you list. To make full use of an intake manifold you should have some head work first. Might as well do everything right the first time.

Buckshot77 and Zetecracing: What is the diameter of the throttleplate of the TB in the images ?? Looks like a nice machining job.
If you have a throttle response problem, check to see that the throttle position sensor doesn't have any dirty or intermittent spots, although a really bad TPS should give you a CEL.
