Default BBK 80mm Throttle Body for Forced Induction?

Anyone using the BBK 80mm TB for FI?
Think there is any merit to it vs. a stock ported TB?

Thx,

Good question.. I guess since the air is being crammed in anyway.. The less restriction the better..

from others personal evaluation the BBK TB is more like a 75, because the lip on the other side of the blade gets narrow, so its a waste pretty much.

This questions has been asked B4. The best solution as far as HP to cost is just to use your stock ported TB.
