    you should port the sides of it a little to help it mate with the UIM.

    Also need a custom tune after that.

    you could get a 99 L36 (3800 n/a) style throttle body, that would be a teeny tiny upgrade, since it wont have the huge block plate in the middle. I have one available, pm me if your interested.
