CamminBeast's TBs look very nice from the pics I've seen.
I think its worth the money for a ported TB, if you dont have the time or tools to do it yourself. Trottle response feels a little more improved aswell.
Cyphur used to port TBs aswell, which looked badass too...

If it's taking me this long to get my TB I don't even wanna know how long it'll take to get my core charge back.
what do you all mean that bo white is done porting throttle bodies? i just sent him mine friday. he knew it was coming and everything. am i going to get ripped off or something?
I am finishing up on orders that I have already taken and still have some that are in route to me. I have a sticky here for the purpose of giving everyone a heads up that Im going to slow down alot of my porting. All orders that are in route, and already here, will be done and sent back in a timely manner. I thankeveryone that contributed to me and their opinion of me being one of the best is not taken lightly by me. 
I try and thats all I can do just like everyone else that does this line of work.
From one "pro" to another, I still look highly on Cammin Beasst work and I recommend him to anyone that cannot have me do it in my spare time.

75 shipped for 8 to 10 rwhp with a ported TB...... An underdrive pulley will yield 6 to 8 rwhp and you would have almost 300 bucks in that after belts and shipping......... Seems like a smart move to me?!?!?!

I have seen the ported t/b's people "do themselves". They all look like ****. Unless youve done 300+ i would never let you touch my t/b. Idleing characteristics, retaining proper velocity, how much material can be removed before going throught the walls, etc. This comes with experience.
And for all thoses people with the mirror finish, ill give it to you that looks great on the internet but the power comes from proper porting not the mirror like finish.
Didn't dyno until after the true dual install and it turned out great. My theory was to build a complete setup so the before-and-after-cam numbers can be normalized, at least that's what I decided. Usually there is no patience to test a TB change, that's why there aren't any before/after dyno graphs.

I got my TB from Katech, very pleased with the CNC porting. They do the core exchange so no down time on the car. I figured they know a thing or two about our engines.
