Default Ported throttle body

Has anybody gotten a ported throttle body from these guys? Any feedback? I'd really like to hear from somebody with an L92/L9H/L76/LY6/L94, but if anybody at all has done it I'd like to hear your experience with the product.

Never had one from them, but have never heard anything bad. I had a ported one on my 07+ 4.8 liter, but it was done by Shaner Performance.

Are there any tuning changes that need to be made after bolting one of these on? It looks like there ported version would bring in more air at idle. I would think this would effect tuning...?
