Default bore tb question

what's the difference between boreing out your stock tb n buying a bored tb from an aftermarket company say JG or spoon or wutever?
of course both will have same size

some people prefer to buy an aftermarket one so they can go back to stock if needed really. If you had it bored properly to the same specs as say the jg or spoon then it will flow very similiar if not exactly the same
