i've heard a lot of good things about new era performance. you send it too them and its about 75 bucks if you dont mind waiting for it to be sent back to you. but from what i've heard, they do a great job and get it back to you pretty quickly... thats where i'm getting mine done over christmas break probably
and no, you wouldnt have to get it tuned just for getting your TB ported

well i dont have any expierience personally, but from what i've heard, you gain a good bit of throttle response and maybe 5rwhp or so, but mainly a noticible increase of throttle response

I read an article in GMHTP where the performed free mods' and gained collectively, one of which included porting the TB.
I've ported and grinded the stop to within an inch of the MIL but can't really tell you I have felt a difference. I supposed if you are looking for every HP it's worth it. Just don't be disappointed when your bum doesn't tell you there's an improvement.
