Willing to help me port wastegate?

I'm trying to reach 350ish on my stock twins and I have the following mods

Greddy Intakes
PFS Intercooler
HKS Mild Steel DP
RX7Trix MP
Racing Beat Dual Tip Exhaust
RPS Performance clutch (street disc with a sport pressure plate)
Unorthodox Racing Underdrive Pulleys, anodized blue
M2 Radiator
Aluminum AST
Greddy Profec B spec II (turned off right now until I install MP/PFC - 7psi)
Greddy Turbo Timer
Fan switch mod
Power FC (base map)

I want to make sure that when I have my mp installed, I don't have any/bad creep so I'd like to port my wastegate and I was wondering if there is anyone here in the bay area that has done it/would like to help me.

I know that there was a thread awhile back but I did a search and I can't find it.

That is a very good price as the rotary shops around here charged $800+parts and $500+parts so $100 is very good labor cost. If I was in so cal, I'd be at your house in a moment.

Replace turbo? That would have to mean that he has spares lying around.
