I currently have a 94 supercharged lt1. Some motor work, was wondering if i throw on a 58mm throttle body would the car like it or dislike it? I never looked at the throttle body as something to upgrade, but i started thinking that it might help with the supercharger? who knows.

with a 58mm tb you're going to have to open up the intake manifold...stock intake openings are only 52mm, and from what ive read theres no need to upgrade the tb till ~400-450 horsepower

one other thing, a larger TB opening is more important on a N/A motor, but on a blown motor the air will get in there regardless. i'd spend the money elsewhere IMO.
