worth porting the TB?
Have many of you ported your own TB or did you buy an S2? I'm thinking about attempting this myself and doing the bump stop mod. Does anyone know any good write ups on this? Thanks

That's a pretty impressive gain. What instructions are good to follow. I know there is one on camarols1.net. I would say do the bump stop mod at the same time right?

from what I understand, the bump stop mod adjust the throttle blade to open a full 90 degrees.
