Local Lowes/Home depot doesn't carry any of those grits. I have used 220, 400, 600, 800, 1500, 2000 grit. I was looking at my TB and I think I can port the slope some more to make it blend more smoothly to the outside lip.



I can't do much on the bottom side but there are alot of metal I can port where the two holes at. Port it to make it less angle slope?

dont mess with the holes or much of hte area around it. you do not want extra air going in there.
look at my TB and see how much metal i took out? just a good smooth transition.

That thing has not been ported, and if it has then its a shitty port job, shame on anyone who thinks that that is ported....
