Just a random thought here, but I would suspect that AoA would not be allowed
to fit, or recommend the fitting of, the modified throttle body unless they
had performed the necessary emissions certification work to get it
homologated.  My guess is that they would take a distinct hands-off attitude.
 Without homologation, a manufacturer would be in deep doodoo selling such
parts for street applications.  Maybe you want to buy it "for off-road
purposes only," the usual subterfuge for non-conforming parts.
