We have always shown good gains with the Skunk2 and it will work well with forced induction. It will really do well with the B20. For the throttlebody if you can scrounge up one for cheap slap it on if not then dont worry about it, just run the stocker. You wont get much bang for the buck from it.

If you go for Jackson supercharger you won't have to worry about either, since the supercharger replaces the intake manifold and throttle body.
If your looking at turbo, check into the intake manifolds with individual throttle bodies, but they are a bit pricey, and probably not worth it especially since your going turbo.

I agree, unless you have extra cash, stick with stock throttle body but go for a high flow intake manifold. At the very least port your stock manifold so that the turbo can force more air down your engine's throat.

The JRSC dont replace your throttlebody it just reloactes it a little. You still reuse your curent one.

True true, my mistake. Still, I'm figuring you'd be fine with stock throttle body, but you can always benefit from a better one.

Don't waste your money on a throttle body and intake manifold. Its useless and you probably will not gain noticeable gain in performance. You should just save that money towards your turbo kit.
