Default tC throttlebody info/comparison

I've done alot of searching here at scionlife and a little google-ing trying to find more info but I only come up with three not so great options;

1. eBay "universal" 80mm that doesn't look like it would install properly.
2. Clicking sponser links and ending up with throttlebody SPACERS instead of a throttlebody itself
3. Some for of RX-8 throttlebody to tC mod that only requires an adapter plate. Not much info except that people have heard that it has been done.

The main reason I'm asking is because I was leaning towards the WR intake manifold and would hate to have a nice CAI (or future FI) trying to flow air through a stock T.B. into a nice manifold. Thanks in advance for any info!!!

Thanks for the info, I saw a few threads here but like you said, they were just dead ends. I'm still looking, if I come up with anything you'll be the first to know.
