Pabably make it run worse.
If you have a bigger cam, better intake, and better exhaust, then a bigger TB would help. If your stock then NO.
The main componants a agressive engine are
Big TB
big injectors
big intake
Big Cam
Big valves
Big runner on the heads
Higher compression pistons
Big headers

Picking one of these will just make the car run bad.

No one cal give you an answer w/o knowing what we're working with. Short answer, if you have a typical 302/mild stroker, just leave what you have.

And no, a larger tb won't have any effect on how the car runs in general

Don't think it will make much different until you put a blower on it.
