Too much? You just go past your painted line or are you having boost issues with everything together? Man when I did this with a dremel and a tungsten carbide bit, I was worried about getting enough since it was such slow going. It took me like 3 freakin' hours.

I have a ceramic-coated turbine housing assembly with a larger custom BNR-installed 35mm wastegate. I'll PM you.

Oh i took my time, But somehow when i was done with the grinder I closed the wastegate and put a light to the hotside runner and could see light through the back of the wastegate.. When i lifted the flapper i was within the paint, so i was kinda pissed
