Throttle body bump stop grind?
How is this done? Looking at my stock throttle body versus the polished one I got, I see where the polished one had the bump stop ground down. I think I heard that you use an ohm meter but not sure where or what to connect the meter to and what reading I need to check for. On another note, the stock TB's inlet was very rough, I used some fine sand paper and them some steel wool and got it VERY smooth now. It's not polshied but it's very smooth, if I get the TB at 99.9% open, I may just return the polished TB for a refund which Shaner said I could do. I'm still getting an intermintent SES light from the TB install anyways. Any help would be appreciated on the bump stop grind.

The voltage for a fully open TB should be 4.64 (wanna stay under 4.7) volts. Use a ohm meter and probe the blue wire goin into the TB sensor.

Re: Throttle body bump stop grind?
why are you getting an SES light? just a different throttlebody shouldn't set an SES light? i have a ported tb on mine with bypass mod etc and have had no problems at all. you sure you did everything right when you installed it? (connected all proper wires etc)

You most definately can port the stock throttlebody Bauer Racing did mine.Some of the guys in the external engine mods forum claim that Bauer's throttlebodies flow over 1000cfm compaired 700cfm for the stock throttlebody.Mine has'nt set any codes.
