well i did a boost leak test yesterday.. my throttle body leaks pretty bad. i really dont wanna replace the seals myself after reading the vfaq.. is anybody here willing to offer their services? i will order the seals myself, so all ya gotta do is replace them.
if its too much though, i may just buy another tb. i found one for a decent price that has already had the seals replaced.

also i talked to a friend and he suggested that next time i file off the peening on the screw. he said that helps them come out much easier

The peening also is there to keep the screw from coming out when the engine running...I would leave it there.
