I am sure others can point out locations where you might obtain larger/more optimized throttle bodies. But I think you are looking in the wrong place for the solution to your problem. Try removing restrictions in your intake and your exhaust. If you have an ATX, you are somewhat at the mercy of your ECU.

CTA intake, exhaust mods, and a optimized TB will help throttle response a whole lot!

I am doing the TB optimization for the Zetecs now. Drop me a PM or email for pricing and information. I've got both an ATX and MTX TB in stock for cores right now.
Thanks,

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