I just got my ported t.b. but have not put it on the truck yet. It looks great, I just have to retune the truck it runs at 2500rpms at idle with it. So I took it back off till I have time to tune for it.

I don't think that it is over ported, I will try to get it on in the next week and give you a update.

If its a minor overport sure. If its too much, you cant adjust the IAC enough to accomodate.

I doubt they overported it. It can happen though.

do you have to send your tb to them or does he do core exchanges?
