I purchased this item. It is aluminum, not the plastic varam one. I do not comprehend the difference in materials, but appreciate the rigidity of aluminum.

This is a quality product. The bolts are superior to the factory bolts. It has a professional finish.

Performance: I did not notice any HP increase. I did not anticipate any. DEFINATELY noticable is the rapid throttle response which comes secondary to a higher residual vacuum behind the TB. That, coupled to Halltech's F1 filter is quite the impressive, head-turning sound, and the RPM really roars up there.

I hope this information helps you, as there is alot of elusive and incorrect info about TBs out there.
