The question is, how much do you want to spend? Because bored stockers are cheap on eBay.

For 52mm, buy a ported stocker. For 58 you have no other choice than aftermarket.

The first thing you would have to do is bore the manifold, since stock is 52mm. If your sig contains all your mods, I am not sure why you would have to retune.

Stock is 48mm. You will have to open up the intake to accept the 58mm tb.

EDIT: sorry, misread the post above me.

A 52mm will bolt right up with no alterations needed because though the stock tb is 48mm, the openings on the manifold are 52mm. For a 58 you wil need to port the intake.
