Default Throttle body question

I saw mention of upgraded throttle bodies for the Saturn SL, tried a search on the forum but not much turned up. Are there places that carry Saturn performance parts. What can a throttle body change accomplish. I bought a used throttle body which I may use to experiment with a gadgetman groove.

aftermarket support is pretty much dead except maybe for the sky.

A bored out or bigger bore throttle body would theoretically improve airflow into the engine, but in reality, the HP gain is negligible and it is therefore pointless, as determined by the larger saturn community

OK great, thanks for the info. I'll let you know how the gadget man groove works when I get it does. might be a while, have to make a custom dremel bit first.
