Not sure, forgot how much I paid for it and what the guy charged me for the half shaft and polish job, I guess about 30 plus shipping, its just sitting here in the cabinet in a box. Its not my original, its one I bought just for the purpose of getting it half shafted and all. Guy named Flex did it, so shiny inside it looks like jewlry. Not sure what he used to polish it with.

No, its not really ported, only the lip is ported out of it. In order to actually port one you have to have a larger throttle plate. half shaft is when they take out like the back side of the split shaft of the throttle plate, this is supposed to increase flow some.

When I did the change over to IRS? I just paid half the labor on that, but I lost my Magnaflow catback and a set of upper and lower control arms in the deal too, so it cost me some. The labor was 200 plus I spent another 100 on getting MM mount bushings installed on it.

If you meant a ring and pinion swap, that can run you anywhere from 150 to 300 bucks depending on who does it and what they charge really. Some might even charge more than that.

The throttle body? I think that they are all pretty much the same, this one was from a 98 actually, my car is a 99 it worked fine on mine and looked identical to the one that came on it. 2000 shouldn't be any different at least I wouldn't think so. I dont think there were any changes at all until about 2002, and then not in the throttle body they did make some changes in the Maf long about then and IAT sensor.

I am not sure on the stock thermostat temp, I am thinking like 200 or 210, but not positive, a lot of people change to 180, but I would just leave it stock, if you gain anything it is so little it wouldn't even be noticable and it may not be good for the engine in the long run.

i know you wouldn't be able to feel anything. but the lower temp should be better for your engine.
