Default Finally ported my intake and TB.

Well not being able to drive my car this weekend left me plenty of time to finally get around to those free mods Ive been wanting to do.

I ported and polished my throttle body, ported my intake and after seeing how much oil was actually in there, I added some breathers so it wont be sucking in oil any more. So I guess the only non free part was the breathers.

The TB can be done in less than an hour with a dremel. The manifold was a pita and I would just cough up the dough and order one already done. There were many hours spent on the manifold when it was all said and done.

i too have ported my own, hopefully it will hold up when its time to boost... however i didnt do extensive porting, just went in and removed the imperfections from the injection process and i removed the resonance towers as well... but that looks really good
