using E70 N62B48B Throttle body on E53 N62B44A

has anyone tried this?
I seen a guy ranting on fb about how a dinan TB costs 1/4 the price of a used e53 these days, so why not use a TB from an e70. they look identical from pictures yet would offer more performance than the factory one in the b44.
if thats true, these things can be had for pennies (compared to a DINAN TB) really...

84mm N62 throttle body swap - Bimmerfest - BMW Forums

well lets see.
I have a Dinan Air Intake and I have a tune on my x5 4.4i already, so maybe this E70 TB, part number 13547535308, will make a bit of a difference again over my stock e53's throttle body...
But I still have the OE MAF for a 4.4 so maybe not... Perhaps I can buy the MAF from the e70 4.8iS to go with that throttle body too
Still. Cheaper than Dinan products...
