It makes sense, your on the money. Its also why cars with big plenums/ intercoolers will take longer to get boost....simply need more air to fill the extra volume..
Does a 2 valve head really have 80 % VE??? whats the VE for a 4 valve head??? and how about a 5 valve head???
As for throttle bodies...thats to do with driveability...a big throttle body becomes a big on off switch so the engine becomes hard to control.
