Helicoil my SMIM

[90BLKTALONTSI]

I just recently bought a Magnus SMIM off of someone and come to find out that one of the bolt holes for the SMIM where the TB goes into is stripped, Can I helicoil the hole? I don't know if I actually have enough room to drill a bigger hole and rethread the hole. I would have to drill a bigger hole in the tb and tb elbow. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance....

Yes, I believe you can. I had a similar issue with my stock 2g IM/Throttle body area being stripped and i got some great help from this thread. Take a lookhttp://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=245556
