Default Motoblue 80mm throttle body

As anyone tried one of these? I can't find any reviews but they seem to make throttle bodies for almost all jeeps. I am Ripp supercharged on my 3.6 so stuffing more air in would be great. It would obviously require a tune but I just want some feedback from anyone. They are fully plug and play.

In the old days a bunch of us were swapping in viper throttle bodies which was a plug and play mod for the 3.8. I noticed no difference except getting the lightning bolt a few times and limp mode, occasionally a rough idle. This was with a canned superchips tune which was made to use that throttle body and even on stock tuning. I sold the throttle body and put my stock one back on and have not had one issue since.

If you can get a custom tune to work with it then it might be worthwhile. The viper throttle body has a mopar part number and is plug and play for about $120. We'll back then it was $120. Not sure if it works with the 3.6

If you google "viper throttle body jeep" or combinations of that there's like a thousand threads about people's great results and others complete lack of them with the mod I did, lol. Not sure if that's helpful but maybe...
