I can't say how much it costs to have yours bored out, as I've never looked into it, but here's what I was referring to

54mm + Air Foil for $199 + Shipping

52mm + Air Foil for $169 + Shipping

Too many parts? It's just the airfoil and it sits in the rubber elbow, nothing to it.

I had never seen one like that either until I bought my car and saw it in there. But thats the way it goes and it lines up perfect with the TB. The only indication of a brand I see is "API" in the back of the airfoil.

Just get the kit that CRC sells on eBay, with the intake elbow and the air foil. That's what I did, just because I eliminated the donkey dong and was uncomfortable with having a deodorant cap plugging the hole. I'm waiting to put my air foil in though. I've got a stock TB that I'm going to port, and I'll just put the air foil in it when I put the new TB in.
