Default Fast 90 Throttle body porting??

Is there any reason why I shouldn't port/polish the CNC machining marks out of the Fast 90 TB? I would assume that being that far ahead of the fuel injector any increase in flow would be beneficial??

Leave it the way it is. 90mm is big enough...and I don't think the throttle bodies have enough material to port a whole lot.

Leave well enough alone is my recommendation.

thanks for input Mike, anyone else? Guess I should mention this is going on a max effort N/A motor and 8000+ rpms.

I think you should run a sheet metal manifold and a 100+mm TB in that case lol.

Max effort N/A and Fast setups do not usually come up in the same sentence....much less plans for future mods. I would stay away from it. Go with a nice sheetmetal intake. The Fast will not flow enough for max effort big cube motors.

I already have a BECK sheetmetal intake....it has a FAST 90 T/B on it. I bought it as a package from another member.
