how much would a 60mm throttle body give me power wise? would i need othe mods to make it worthwhile?

If u were to do the 60mm, ud want to end up getting a Rx7 MAF/VAF and tunin it.

so i would need a new maf vaf and a tune and then would it make a big diff?

if you're looking for a "big difference" go turbo. Or BP.
Stuff like this just doesn't "make a difference" in a NA B6.

i mean you could get an adapter plate made and bolt a big mustange tb up but its not going to do much for you

Pretty sure Gude has a TB for the DOHC, as I am going to buy the kit and it includes cams, head, and TB.
Like 90% sure.
