Bullshlt. You're talking out of your ass. There is plenty of room. You can knife edge it just fine without gettign anywhere near the edge where the butterflies meet the housing.

WOW. You go from one extreme to the next. You tell a n00b not to do something that can be done, to telling him something that you did, that he can do, that could easily ruin his throttle body in the process.

I have done both - porting and polishing the throttle body along with grinding the rods. I would never suggest that someone grind the rods over a simple porting and polishing. Thats so backwards man.

I know what my newest video will be about now.
