Boring out the throttle body

I've been looking alot at Dinan products and for $800 they'll bore out the throttle body both sides and make it pretty. My question with that is; Even if you bored it out would it still matter if you didnt change the center ring, the thing that actually opens up? Makes no sense why people would pay so much money for that? They claim a 5 hp gain but 800 to me isnt worth 5 hp, maybe a larger throttle body yes. Can someone shed some light on this.
