Default porting throttle body

i thought about porting out my throttle body on my 98 v6 stang, i heard it was something that "you just do when your bored" well i AM bored, so any thoughts of how to do it or what to do? i heard that you can do it with a dremel which i have, so any help would be good

Ummmm.....on a V6 don't waste your time. The only time porting parts of the intake is if your boosted or very high hp N/A.

Not worth it. At least not the TB. You could however port your upper and lower intake and see like 20hp or so. IF you do it right.

don't touch your TB. Porting it will not help.
