[weejimmy]

yeah i didnt expect too see a difrence just now but prefer to get as much done so pip can map it all done.
so in your pic did you put the 3 buterflys back in?
 
i can see what you mean about the difrence between the gasket and the metal.

nope u remove them and then cut the middle section out and port it all away
On rx7club.com have a read on there, a few have made there own uim.. and theres a fountain of info on there, im still working my way through it and iv known about it fer 2 years :S only thing is, yo`ll want to do it ALL!! im not far away if u ever want a hand, guna be buying a used engine soon to port n rebuild..

[weejimmy]

wow
looked on that site and all they seem to do is b1tch at each other.ill keep trying,
just a wee bit confused
you said you cant remove the buterflys?
do you mean you CAN remove the top 2 but NOT the botom one?
cause then you said remove them and cut the middle section out.
sorry

[arrouk]

please leave the butterflys in the throttle body alone!
if you remove them and start your car it would just rev untill you turned it off or it blew up.

remove the uim and tb.
split them, remove the assembaly in the UIM and port away, if you start opening out past the outer edges otf the tb internals you will have to port them as well.
then there is the leading side of the tb.

have a look on here as this shows how far you can go and still use the stock gaskit, ive also port matched the lim to the ports in my block.

please leave the butterflys in the throttle body alone!
if you remove them and start your car it would just rev untill you turned it off or it blew up.
