M42 throttle body defective?

[nickmp0wer]

yes, but its also bad. It lets less air in then almost full throttle

BMW might have designed it that way on purpose, ever think of that?

Not necessarily true without proof. If all m42s do it, perhaps it's not a case of what the eye sees and rather the flow of air in the chamber. Perhaps it's made to make the air more turbulent? It sucks that I have it way deep in my parts stack or I would've played with it a bit more. There's always a reason behind calibrations. Sometimes or most times I don't believe that the set up is deliberatley set up to be restrictive as the m42 is pretty high strung out of the box. Let me know offline if you ever find any changes after altering the set up.

the point is i felt like there was more acceleration at a little bit less then full throttle then i looked at the throttle body and found that

It might be something else not the TB butterfly.
