A little polishing. Mixed opinions whether it helps or not, but flying a turbine I know smoother air flows more efficiently so..

Anyone know about these numbers?!

Remember though, polishing only works in either Direct Injection or Port Injection as wet flow intakes need a rougher surface to maintain aeration of the fuel.
