Default Professional Products Throttle Body

I was looking to either buy a ported stock throttle body or the Professional Products Throttle Body, and I was wondering if any of you guys have dealt with this brand and/or LivernoisMotorsports before.

Ported TB is all you need.

if you have a pretty much stock car even up to some of the regular bolt ons, all you really need is a port and polished stocker. one of the sponsors on here does it pretty cheap.

Actually porting your throttle body doesn't make the opening any wider, just makes it a cone shape. The 85mm wont be any good unless you have most everything else 85mm or bigger will it? I got the 85mm PP TB at my house but I'm currently in a different country so I don't know how good it is till I get back. It's to be mounted up to 85mm BBK Manifold.

Definately look into other mods first, i.e., headers, pulley, lid, etc.

Not what I was asking, want to know if anyone has a PP tb, and Im probably only going with an 80mm.
And already got a lid, catback and chip, headers are next.

I have the professional products 80 mm on mine. I hate the stupid adapter. I drove it and to me it feels like i lost bottom end power but i may be wrong. I may put my stock ported one back on and see how it feels.
