Ryan,

There is a place in my town (which is pretty amazing to me) that should 
probably have "big bore" throttle bodies that will fit your Coupe.  The 
name of the place is "ELP Racing" or something.  It stands for
"Emissions 
Legal Performance", although I think that is more in reference to their 
chips than their throttle bodies.  I have the number at home, email if 
interested.  I think they're around $310 or so(?).

Or, you could try Eurorace, in Huntington Beach, I happen to have their 
number right here, (310)542-9753.  I got my resonator from them (bolts 
right on where the cat goes!  SO much better than a single Borla and 
no cat!)

There's always Ned Ritchie at IA or Ivor Wigham(sp?) at TAP...

Or, Perhaps some listers would know of a "factory bolt-on" upgrade, 
like from a larger Audi, or borrowed from the vee-dub family?  If 
there is, please CC me.  Inexpensive is good.
