Just an idea I kind of dreamed up... What if, instead of using a butterfly in the throttle body, you used an iris, like in a camera, instead? I know there are probably a lot of problems with the idea, but figured I would just run it through the forum to see what people thought.

I love ingenuity and creative thinking! Don't know if it would work well or not but I like the idea none the less. If you can figure out a way to do it, I'd love to see it. Watch out you might get flamed for your ideas but don't listen to them.

I think that'd be pretty cool I'd like to see it done. seems pretty hard though.
