I should be furious at you for gutting the cats....wait ! - I have a weird deja vu feeling....


Anyways, try this sponsor: http://www.neweraperformanceparts.com/
They port TB for $75, which is the cheapest price you'll find. They have a picture on their website.

Not trying to jack your thread dude, but I'm just wondering from some of you guys that have ported tb's how much they would help on a virtually stock setup? I mean anything thats really measurable or just more throttle response/faster revs if anything?Thanks.

Most of our sponsors sell ported TB's in exchange, or you can port it yourself:
