I have been thinking about getting one, have many of you fitted one? If so, was there any noticeable improvement to performance or driveability?

I have and it was mainly to get rid of the sticky plastic 48mm and to make an improvement which I think is very slight,I will try and find a test report I found on an elise site the other day where an alloy 48mm TB that had been polished out performed the 52mm which in turn had out performed the 48mm plastic
