That makes sense. It's just opposite of what I was thinking.
The fact that more air in with the bigger tb resulting in more rpm wasn't clear in my head.
But with a bigger tb=more rpm at the same tps then you would have lower line pressure at a higher rpm than you did before the tb swap.
Thanks!

Yes, you can hurt performance if you put a (significantly) bigger TB than needed. The car will tend to bog down whenever you try to go WOT.

There's a formula here somewhere for figuring out how much air your engine needs and how much various TBs will flow.
