First thing first, I'm guessing you have a F150, but I'm not so sure about what year it is or what size engine it is. I do know that it's not a V6 because you would be in the wrong section.

Aftermarket throttle body will do very little if anything at all.
A better investment would be a tuner.

for the money your going to spend on aTB thats 5MM bigger than stock its not worth it the BBK TB that is 75MM for my truck is 230+ when a tuner is right around there. and if you get a bigger TB you mine as well take your intake manifold to a CNC shop and have them make the intake runner and TB elbow bigger as well to flow more air. but that costs alot of money. as stated before get a tuner
