Absolutely agree with you. The Throttle Bodies are great fun - but the reality is that you have to really drive up at the top end of the tach to get the benefit.
I personally particularly enjoy swapping the cogs and revving the engine= Throttle Bodies.
Throttle Bodies don't really equate to torque - as Gamalunga says displacement and turbo/ super chargers are more relevant if that is your " thing"
Diesels have a lot of torque - Morgan with a diesel????
