porting a throttle body
I remember you can send your core TB to one of the vendors here in exchange for a ported one, but i can't remember who it was...coest was pretty reasonable too. Anyone know?

Hi Kevin,
Mark Shaner does do some great work. I've been waiting a few months though for mine though. Finally getting it tomorrow
. I paid a core charge that is fully refundable this way I had no down time.

I guess he said he got sick, but I don't know. I would say call him and talk to him, but he can talk your ear off, so have some time to talk. He is a good guy, but it shouldn't of taken that long and now I think he's playing catch up? In have only heard good things about his work, that's why I went with him and was somewhat patient.

I got mine done at www.thelapd.com It is thermal coated and it works awesome.
Here's a few pics:
Call Al @ 1-877-THE-LAPD and ask him about having yours done!
Thanks,Matt
