Compared to butt dyno and real dyno sheets of other modified 86s I've driven, there is noticeably more throttle response and torque delivery with the larger throttle body. There's a lot of people who say it doesn't do anything and not to waste your money. My experience with it is much different.
Not disagreeing with you, but the butt dyno is not that accurate. I have done many mods that I swear I feel it, but others don’t think so. I am now more of a test and see person. As long as the expense is not too high, and the car is running well, and you like it then all is good.

My example is I researched doing the Crawford blocks on my BRZ which has header, fr pip, exhaust and tune. Some said not much difference, others said it was worth it. So $300 later and a bit of a pain install, I definitely felt a difference and the car does pull better in the mid range. I am staying NA so every little mod helps, but is it worth $300, my official opinion is maybe., leaning towards yes.
