Default Need help with P&P the TB

I've got all day tomorrow free and I'm wanting to port and polish my TB because I herd that is a worth while mod. I need instructions on what to do and or pics would be even more helpful because I don't want to mess it up.

dont take to much off when you port, in other words dont get to carried awayed.
i will post pics of mine when i get a chance.
you need to have a dremel tool and some polishing hardware, and some abrasive hardware also.

So what exactly do I do? I sort of know some things, don't I grind the inside a little making the opening bigger. Also I'm not going to go anywhere near the throttle plate. How do you polish it, I thought you took some real fine sand paper and make it real smoothe, can't I do that?I'll try to shave a little down and send you a pic to make sure I didn't screw it up.

hmmmmm ....
i dont grind on the throttle body's
i have a certain sanding wheel that i use to sand down the TB. not sure what grit i would have to go look, but its not enough to gouge(sp) it.
i will try and post a pic here on the board shortly.
