maxx hope you dun mind if i borrow your thread.

reboring TB is to allow better and smoother air flow am i right? so how about reboring the exhaust header? will it give the same effect as well?

porting or port n polish (pnp) usually done at head inlet/outlet.
porting is to enlarge the opening n polish to make the surface smooth.
maximum polish usually done at exhaust/outlet to reduce carbon buildup n smooth exhaust flow.

im looking for place to "port n polish" my engine throttle body. hehe

yes.
40mm is the maximum safe limit to my tb.
btw, coolant line below the tb for fast idle warming up also has been by pass.
no more hot running coolant at the tb.

in mind was
converting a honda eg 1.5 sohc into 1.6 vtec b16a..
