Default I hogged out my torque port on my fast 102 will my torque be gone?

Going from a NW102 tb to a Holley 105 the torque port on the intake was surprisingly only measuring 100mm i kinda got carried away and now it's 106 mm will it be ok?

I think you ruined it. I’ll do your a solid and trade you mine unmolested though so you can have your torque back.

I'll be dynoing again but will have several changes. But a simple log will let me know if the restriction is gone

I'd say on a cathedral intake the runners will be a restriction before the torque port

Whenever I do this I use a hole saw. Looks like you used a dremel and sandpaper. I borrowed one from a plumber. A 4 1/8 th bit works the best. 4 1/4 is too big and a 4 is too small. 4s are good for hoggin a 92.

When starting the bit, it skips around. But don't let that bother you. Just bear down on it until it straightens out. This happens 1/2 way through. Then pull the plug out of the bit, and use a rat tail file to smooth out the mars and tooth marks. Wobbly holes work better. Picked up 21 HPs.

Does it make like a helix in the torque port like those throttle body spacers to add a supercharger effect?
