Intake manifold question, i've got an idea! Options

Okay, so in a turoing the 7afe thread here there was a mentioning of taking a honda engine (b16) exhaust header and removing the flange and placing a 7afe flange on it so we can have a cheaper turboing header... SO my question is this, if we can do that to the exhaust cant we also do it to the intake? Making the intake manifold larger? Like buy a b16 intake manifold, cut the flange off and weld a 7afe flange on it? Wouldnt it work? and if it would would it even be worth the money/time spent?

So to increase the throttle body size you would need to? A) get a larger TB and B) Make a larger hole? correct? And htne there wouldnt be much of a reason to do so because obviously the engine is getting plenty of air.

You might want to just get another 7afe throttle body, and have it board out. You can probably get another 5mm out of it at least. Check for shops in your local area that do performance parts/machining.
