Guys.. Print out the info Wren posted..
Take your TB off and bring it to a machine shop...they shouldn't have any issues at all doing the work fairly low cost.

FYI, the TB I ported for Boost was NOT a 99. I know the difference. It was a 96-98 S2 L67 TB.
His gains were not from the different type, they were from the modifications made to it.

Bill, you mentioned on the phone that the PCM was starting to re-learn the TB. It should adjust the fueling UP to compensate, so the learning should still net you the gain, and then some, as the PCM learns how to fuel the new flow.

Been so busy with my additions and new wood burning furnace going in. What would you like to do to my TB, Mr Wren? Are you porting them yourself now? I'm scared, very, very scared. Boosty does your butt really feel a difference? I seen that butt in an earlier meet pic. If it feels "moved" ... there must be a Hp improvement. I have been on the fence with this one for some time and keep wondering if there is any real improvement. Will do you really think the N* PCM will adjust to flow.... it seems to learn everything else.Since i'm not driving but around the Lake area,... maybe I could be a guinea pig.

Boosty, you did two mods 
So how do you know how much can be attributed to the TB porting/mods or to the removal of the MAF screen :?:
The observations you related were my exact observations when I simply removed my MAF screen. :?
I have no doubt that the TB mods will make a difference but only after the air fuel ratio re-learning. Every little bit of efficiency improvement makes a difference.

We talked a bit about that earlier today, Paul. MAF screen is something he'* going to play with. But the good news is that he has 'before' scans. So he may be able to determine what does what.
Based on Don'* observations with his L36 TB, though, I think it'* safe to say there'* a significant noticable gain, despite the MAF screen.
John, can you find a core? eBay perhaps? I have a shortstar TB on the way already. So far I've done:
L27
L67 S1 (both gens)
L67 S2
L36
and a shortstar soon. I'd like to cover all the bases.
