Polishing TPI

I'm looking into options for polishing my TPI, Throttle Body, Runners & base...

Is there a place that will port & polish? What's the average price?

I've seen some guys on this board do some nice work, I don't see too well, but I may be willing to try with a part I don't need...

Thanks,

Rafael

so what are you asking exactly because I am ready 2 different questions port and polishing is where they enlarge the openings for better air flow. Are you wanting every thing to look like a mirror

ok I have an idea. go to the auto shop and buy MOTHERS BILLET METEL POLISH ( price $17.00) rub it on a rag and onto ur tpi runners. you will be stuned at how good it will look. be sure to clean the runners before you put it on.
