    Polishing ported throttle body...

    What should I do after I sand it. I wet sanded but it is still not as shiny as I want...but its smooth as a babies bottom...pics here...I want to knife edge also...what grit sand paper would I use for that?

    ...I'm finishing what RSM started.

    I was going relatively fast thru a school zone and was caught. However, I managed to zip into a neighborhood and evade the cop. Could I get additional tickets by trying to run?

        With just sandpaper alone it'll never get a mirror shine. After wetsanding with 1000 grit, use a polishing paste and some elbow grease 2 or 3 times and it'll be like chrome.

            IAC valve....

            and as long as its smooth it'll flow, you dont need it to be shiney just to flow air well, wet sanding with 1000 will get it plenty smooth

                Is the idle messed up, or is it just making a whining noise?

                  sorry, should've been more clear, my guess would be that you changed the port to the IACV and by sharpening the edges or making it shallower you in turn created the whistling sound

                    I just whines....the idle is fine, except for the whine.
