mmmmm! To be honest I didn't, but I taken advice on this from Kev (Ultimate) who is pretty experienced around this area, sure he mentioned a few extra ponies from a simple mod. Most Euro tuners stick with the stockers and remove the burrs

If you touch them you will void the warranty. You might make extra hp resulting in another part breaking.

You know, my warranty just expired and it's almost a relief. I'll do whatever the hell I want and be responsible for any consequences.
