Default Who's doing P&P TB?

I thought I saw a gentleman not to long ago on here who was doing P&P TB for cheap. We either send ours in and/or he sent you a loaner, while yours got worked on. I tried doing a search but can't find the tread or the craftman doing the work. Anyone know who I'm talking about? Thanks Daniel

I think you might be thinking of Tim from Performance Throttle Bodies, he is a sponser. I got one of his TB's and the work was great and he was a good guy to do buisness with, I would recomend him.

Got mine done by Tim, and I'm very happy. Then again, it's not a difficult process if you have the tools and time, so I'm sure Bo does a good job as well.

What's the usual turnaround rate for porting them and getting them back?

I'm waiting for mine to come back from Tim. I couldn't refuse the prices that his current sale is offering. I've seen both his TB's and Bo's and they are both definitely top notch. You can't go wrong with either of them.
