This idea is actually widely used as a performance mod on sports cars, it is often referred to as "porting" the throttle body. It involves doing what you just mentioned, as well as removing as much excess material from the inside of the TB as possible, including even some of the shaft, partially covering any holes for vent lines, IAC valve etc etc. This is done largely to increase throttle response as you mentioned. However, as odd as it may sound,
decreased throttle response is really my goal.
