Truth is you won't see much performance, your forcing compressed charge through it. the restriction of the stock one on power is minimal. On a roots style blower like PW or Jackson your going to see more power, but not on a turbo setup.
I had an issue with a 65mm TB, it was just too sensitive especially running 200+whp its going to make launches difficult in poor traction conditions (rain). Couple that with a stage 3 clutch and its even worse.
I ended up just porting the stock TB to increase the throttle response a little. Cost next to nothing and is a very good compromise to the expensive billet TB's.

I would disagree here with you the stock tb is tiny whats the point or running 2" or 2'5" intercooler piping if its going to conect to a small restricting tb. More air flow more power. Im running the steeda one and Ive never had a problem with it. But you will benefit from any aftermarket upgrade.
