Well, I decided to do a bit of cleaning on the throttle body and upper intake yesterday. I was able to clean out all of the carbon build up from the throttle body and i got some cleaned from the upper intake before I ran out of cleaner. I also decided to work on the throttle body. Its very small but the screws that hold the throttle plate to the throttle pin has those screws that stick out quite a bit. I got to thinking... I wonder how much that make the incoming air turbulant which would hinder high flow and compression of air. It may be next to nothing at all but i went ahead and shaved off the excess... heres the pics of after i finished the work and mod...
Everything taken off...

Upper intake needs a lot more work!
