Question for the experienced guys. I have made several observations. It would appear that the factory built in a bunch of clearence around the back of the injector (between the injector and the intake). This is the area that protrudes into the port. When you guys open up the port just behind the injectors, how agressive do you get?

Our cars use a much smaller (diam) injector and do not need as much clearance. Have you thought about adding more material to this area just behind the injector (on the outside of the intake) so that you could remove more of the bump inside the port?

I have and did. Unfortunately, I do not have any pics to share with you guys as my car is currently at MV Performance (100 miles from me) waiting to be tuned.
