One more thing to get before I hit the track....
I can't wait.....This Saturday I get my last planned mod before hitting the track, a set of 17" SSR Competition Wheels (gunmetal) on 225-50-17 tires (Conti's). Wheels weigh 14.5 lbs each. I want to see what a TL-P will do with every decent bolt on there is, so with headers,CAI, Mugan cooling mods, UR pulley and light wheels we will see. The car will be as light as I can make it and I'll wait for a cool day as well. Want to have a really good all NA car for daily use. Sure I'd like a Type-S but I bought mine just before they came out and decided to stick with it as it's been 99% problem free.

Where can you bore a throttle body out and the intake manifold port matched at? I tried several shops in Boca Raton and West Palm Beach and they all said they can't do it, and they said I would have to buy a bigger throttlebody...?
