    Are these significantly better than a stock tb that's ported? Jw because I'm seeing them being sold for cheap and I'm wondering if I should buy one or just port my stock tb.

    You need to tune to benifit from them. And unless you have some pretty decents mods like a cam or IC they arent really worth it

    The tb itself may be cheap, then youll also need sensores adaptor plate and external MAF
