Thanks for the question. The main difference between the two is that the SE8223-80 was ported more aggressively and flowed a bit more than the SE8223-40.
If you have any other questions or concers please let us know. Always happy to help!

I buy first and ask questions later...
It ended up being a SE8223-40 which I now hope will be perfect, for my 2017 M7 GrandSport with GM CAI and AWE X-pipe

Youre all good. The -80 version was intended for the C7 Z06 anyway, so the SE8223-40 you picked up is the correct and perfect choice for your 2017 M7 Grand Sport with the GM CAI and AWE X-pipe. Itll work great on your setup.
Once you move past intake and exhaust, airflow starts to matter more.
Our 95mm throttle body pairs well with ported manifolds and other bolt-on upgrades, helping maintain throttle response without becoming a restriction. https://www.solerengineering.com/generalmotors/95mm
Regarding the 92mm Billet TB vs 95+ MM Premium Modified. Are there any benefits over your "95+ MM Premium Modified, Ported and Calibrated Throttle Body" model other than the 92mm being billet?

Good question. The main difference isnt just that the 92mm is billet, its also about size, airflow, and how the part fits into your overall setup.
The 95mm flows more than the 92mm:
92mm: ~1200 SCFM @ 20.4" (about a 20% increase over OEM)
95mm: ~1300 SCFM @ 20.4" (about a 34% increase over the 87mm OEM)
That said, fitment and supporting mods matter. The 92mm is a direct bolt-on for a stock intake manifold, so its a simple upgrade with no additional parts required.
The 95mm, on the other hand, typically requires an adapter to work with a stock manifold. On C7s specifically, it also wont work with the OEM cold air intake. So its better suited for setups that already have supporting modifications.
In practical terms:
If youre staying stock or lightly modified, the 92mm is the better fit. Its straightforward, effective, and doesnt require additional changes.
If youre building a more modified setup and can support the extra airflow, the 95mm offers more headroom and higher potential gains.
It really comes down to your current setup and how far you plan to take it.
