Re: PORTED THROTTLE BODY ...cant go wrong with a store bought ported TB. However, most do it themselves; its not hard
...see the net for instructions on self-ported TB....
Buy the way, the most effective part is to cut/file the butterfly stop on the outside of the housing. From the factory, the butterfly valve only opens about 90%....

Besides, if you do it yourself, it is free...

Re: PORTED THROTTLE BODY I personally like the S2 (http://home.att.net/~m.shaner/wsb/ht...ome.html-.html)
I have also heard good things about the Bauer.

Re: PORTED THROTTLE BODY Definetly use Bret Bauer or Mark Shaner. I got one from Jantzer and had trouble. Shaner and Bauer picked up on the trouble I was having and they were more than helpful.
