Heh heh....sounds like *my* wife. She walked outside when I was doin'
mine. There's aluminum dust flyin' all over the place and I stop and look
up at her. "I sure hope you know what your're doin' " she says with a
grin. She understands this is a sickness ya see. 8^)

What most likely happened is that the computer freaked out temporarily due
to the sudden increase in incoming airflow which would cause a
substantially different reading at the MAP sensor. Being that the computer
uses adaptive memory it had gotten used to a certain range of readings.
Along you come and jam a ton of extra air in there and the computer
"chokes". 8^) You should be set now tho.
Another home throttle body port/polish a success!!
