    Can anyone tell me if there are any gains to be had from modding the throttle body on a 20vt DBW engine ?

    I am after as much free power as can be had with just some hard graft
    Is it worth filing the body front edge smooth or does it need to be ramped to the butterfly ?

    Or is there a recognised bolt on body that's compatible with the 20v?
    Thanks
    Steve

    'Free' power comes from more 'rl' request ;)

    I.have yet to get the immo off on the Dev ecu, so I cant experiment with that side of 'free' power just yet, I'll get there...

    But wondered if it's worth me doing any work on the throttle body
