If i wanted lets say a 70mm throttle body and plenum could i just get someone to bore out my stock plenum? or would that be dangerous or something? i heard of one person doing this but i havent talked to him. id wanna do this because i need to keep the stock look under there. lemme know if anyone knows where i could get this done. thanks.

Nick

ha i live in florida. mexico is a little far. they said they made more. prob not much. its prob about the same. if you think about it its the same thing. its just a bigger hole. and if you get a 70mm TB then it would flow the same right?
