Boring out your throttle body...?

i know it'll add a bit of power, but how much is it? and in your opinion, is it worth it?

[ford50forlife]

its very hard to "bore" out a throttle body, and NO its not worth it, your gonna end up i believe getting a new blade once the old one is removed, and you bore it out, you just gotta make sure that the person doing the work knows their SHIT, last thing you want is a 56mm tb bore and a 54.6mm tb blade and 3k idle

ITS STUPID there is NO reason to do a throttle body bore, just get a nice aftermarket one and save yourself trouble

that is IF your not doing the work yourself, if you can machine stuff i say go for it but KNOW wtf you are doing but id still shell the loot and get something i know is gonna work out of the box and that would net BETTER gains...
