Larger throttle body just allows more air to flow into your engine. Typically the gains are not very noticable until you have done modifications so you car requires more air. Sometimes bigger is not always better. As for the injectors they are calibrated to your MAF and the same applies, bigger is not always better. This is a sticky at the top of on of the 5.0 sections, Bolt on Myths destroyed. take a look and see what some of the gains were.

90mm mass air is awful big for your mods....but I'd get a decent set of heads and supercharge it
