May i ask why your asking for engine boring?

I regards to throttlebody kits, i dont think anywhere does a specific kit. Best bet would be too look on burton power.

ps. moved too 'Tuning'

Engine boreing, its not as straight forward as that... When you bore out a engine, you have to change a multitude of things.

The story would go,

Bore out engine
Needs bigger pistons and rings
Different pistons may require different rods
you would be altering the compression ratio,
this would need to be catered for
fueling modifications poss need to be done
etc etc

And for the price you would pay for all of that, you could buy say a mountune kit and have lots of spare money for beer!
