Default Ls6 throttle body on fast 90 intake

As the title suggests, im wondering if anyone has tried this before. How much power would i be losing vs a NW 92. Found one on Jegs that states it is an 85 mm (not sure if ported or not). Pretty much looking for a budget friendly tb that won't rob me of much power, will pay Nick Williams money if i have to.. lol

Summit has their own brand of 85mm TB for $199. Looks to be the same TB as the Jegs unit. I just put one on my TA and it was top notch quality.

It would be nice to have actual data instead of people repeating what they think might happen. I'll stay tuned as I also wonder what data is out there when using a 78 mm tb on an intake with a 90 mm opening like the fast or tbss/nnbs.
I realize it's a form of a restriction along the intake path but the larger intake manifold opening must make up for something....I'd definitely love to see dyno data of this to put it to rest
