I know what your saying, but at least it was a topic that could be of use to other people that browse the board.

I used a dremel for mine. I ground out all the large imperfections and that little "ridge" in there, then took several different grits of sandpaper and hand polished it to a nice smooth finish. Cant say that it made more power, but I liked doing the work.

Re: porting and polishing throttlebody?
so, at a machine shop it'll cost around 100 bucks to get it done? and about how long will it take for the work to be done?
