almost as fast. By the way, for newbies, Jon posted Kuk's TB mod
information on the DML long ago. 2 yrs ago, I did my 97 V6 TB Kuk's way
using the dremel, but upgraded to a drill press with special milling
bits to do a satisfying job (not as good as a machine shop). I have a
'98 318 now and my TB bores are balanced and polished. All the machine
shop did was mil the bores and I did the rest. Its a work of art that
several chebbies and ferds didn't appreciate. If you've got the follow
up tools and knowhow, go for it.

GS,
Not true! The gains are JUST AS GOOD! HOME BREW TBS WORK!!! This is good
advice that will save all of you even more $$$ Ive seen some great posts from
Mark K, Mike and others regarding home made TB mods. If you cant wait and
feel the need to express yourself, Start grinding (but it is a good idea to
get eh bores reamed by a shop!)
