Default anybody ever bore out there own TB?

I have an extra F22 throttle body and I want to bore it out. I don't have the money to have it done professionally and I was wondering if anyone here has done it on there own? If so, how'd you do it and what did you use?

Thanks

never did it but here is the problem I see.

you have to get it perfectly round and the bore has to be straight. so you would need some sort of drill press and a very large bit.

how are you going to make a new, larger throttle plate.

cheaper than boring it, would be getting a used H22/H23/ITR/S2K TB

edit: I can't spell

I could do it with access to a mill and proper cutter, however making the plate would be a different story.
