I bought an 80mm throttle body and can't feel any differance at all. I see that the intake is about 75mm so was the 80mm nothing but a big waste?

Waste, go properly ported stocker/LS6 intake or a 90/90 setup. Nothing else I would consider personally.

I went out and put my stock ported throttle body back on and to me it seems to have more power. I wonder why?
