Icon2 Aftermarket Throttle-body to support Cruise Control?

I'm looking for a 65mm+ throttle-body that has, or supports the stock dual rotor design to maintain cruise control. Do any of the aftermarket TB's (Prof. Products, PB Tuning, BLOX, etc.) come with dual rotors or would they allow me to transfer the stock rotors on to them?

Why not send your stock TB to maxbore.com and have it bored to a 64mm throttle plate with a 67mm tapered opening. It's $105 for a TB bore w/return shipping included. They also have manifold matching services as well.

This will allow you to keep your stock cruise control rotor.

Because I'm not sure whether I still have all the components of my stock TB, namely the TB itself. I know for a fact that I still have the rotors and spring though. So... I can spend ~$35 on another stock TB and $105 to bore it to 64mm, or potentially ~$145 for an aftermarket unit with a 65-68mm bore.

Downgrading to 64mm probably won't cause vacuum issues like stock unit did, but I'm quite partial to the snappy throttle response of my current TB, so I'd like to go as large as possible while retaining the ability to use CC. Just exploring my options before I put any more money into the Accord these days.

Maxbore.com throttle body boring service and repair

This will allow you to keep your stock cruise control rotor.
That company can mod a tb to allow you to keep cruise? Looking into the swap too but didn't want to lose it so I was looking at the k-series tb. The zdx oem tb wouldn't allow me to keep it
