As other have commented, and I am somewhat familiar,
the process forces an abrasive paste through some
apiture (EM, IM, head ect.,)for an EM or IM that seems
to be great, as the path fluid would "cut" should
thorecticly mimic that of air/gas flow making it
easier to get in or out.
On a head there is a potential to remove material that
provides benificial flow air/speed characteristics.
I think Ill still focus on the EM & IM!
So How Much $ ?
If we're talkin $500 to "HONE" an EM or IM, I want
un-biased data on Audi parts, that shows SIGNIFICANT
improvement and translates into More HP & or torque!
Since the RS2 EM supposedly already does that, is
there more to be had, and at what cost?
Does it make sense for the IM?
Again a call out to all you sage s-tuners?
