The most important factor that influence print quality, when it comes to the extruder, is the hobbed bolt. If the hobbing isn't consistent, or the diameter varies, it will affect the extrusion rate. So unless you have tweaked every other nitty gritty detail on the printer, and the hobbed bolt is of decent quality, going commercial on the extruder, probably won't make a huge difference.
But before you start tweaking too much on the extruder, you should check if you are using PID or BangBang for controlling the bed temperature?
I had a similar issue on my printer, because I had the bed temperature control set to BangBang, and every time the heat turned on of off, the bed moved up and down as much as 0.1mm.
