Nobody makes one that I know off. If they did, it would be useless. As it is orginal design is to help mix the fuel and air before it enters the intake. That is impossible on multi injector rides like ours. However, they do still sell them for multi injector cars

If you want one that badly, fabricate... 1/2"-3/4" aluminum stock, a mill, and 5-6 holes... hardest part is getting access to the mill..

However, I concur with Dale on this, there's little point on a port injection motor.

make sure your tps is set right. Make a good air intake system.
