Being brought up in the motocross scene Im fairly familiar with porting and polishing how ever.... Its something you need to fully understand. I.e how Flow work , turbulance, Flow test etc etc its not as straight forward as shaving a bit here and there. You can very easily make things alot 'worse' than the factory castings.

Although I cant see how you can port a TB ?? possibly bore it out a fraction or match it to the intake plenium!?

There was a post on here a while back about someone who did it with a bag of sand and used the inlet air velocity to create a sand blast effect...

It didn't end well for him, but it was a funny as fcuk...

f**king hell. That has to be a wind up. I'm in stiches! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. Too funny!!

On a serious note...I was thinking something similar but with a 150PD manifold..I have a shot blasting machine at work I can use, would it just be a case of removing the 'sharp' edges from the insides? Was going to grab an old one to test it out on  :undecided:
