RE: lt1 bolt ons
Basically the same bolt ons that are available for most cars. For the engine you can add a cold air intake, cat back exhaust system. Or if you want you could add long tube headers, a nitrous system, or even a supercharger. The throttle body is big enough to handle any bolt ons you can add. Most other bolt on mods won't accomplish anything really noticeable. Be aware of most stuff that promises HP gains because it is mostly BS.
Foe better handling & traction, there are strut braces, sub frame connectors, adjustable panhard rods, improved control arms, suspension kits. It all depends what you have in mind.
Once all the mods are in go to a PCM tuner, such as PCM For Less, and get your PCM tuned to take advantage of the mods.

A large throttle body will do nothing for power unless the engine is producing over 400 HP. For the cost of a throttle body you can add more productive mods. If you really want to change it, get a really big one, so you won't have to buy another one in case you get the car up close to 600 HP. A large throttle body will make the engine very sensitive to gas pedal movement, but won't add power to an engine thet is getting all the air it can use already,
