Default Who is porting throttle bodies these days?

I`d like to get a ported 00-02 throttle body or have mine ported and polished inside and out. Anyone out there doing this anymore?

Yea, we have been porting a ton of Tb's lately, usually 3 or 4 a day! They are $75 for the normal port and polish. PM me if you are interested in getting the whole thing polished as well. Check the website for updates and sales!

How does this work? Will you send a ported/polished TB to me and I in turn mail mine back to you? Or do I have go without a TB until I get it back from you?
Thanks.

You send your's to them, they have it back in the mail within 48 hours that they get it, I think. Maybe 24 hours, not sure.

New Era Perf. ported my TB. I'm very happy with the quality and fast turnaround time. You won't be disappointed. !

I initialy ported the TB myself and did terrible job doing it. You really have to spend a lot of time on it, and have the right tools as well (a solid grinder, fine sand paper) .
Details are important, and it's easy to screw it up if you over-port.

For somebody who hates taking risk, I suggest New Era. It's only $75....
