Secondary throttle plates don't open all the way

lol, I fubared my TB after I did the throttle body mod... so I had to get another. Now, I'm weary of doing it again...

PS: I heard of doing the tb mod where you remove the seconday plates, the rod, and the vaccum diaphragm, but leave the thermowax in. This allows the car to idle when it's cold...

Just to clear it up, by secondary I meant the other main 2, not the ones that you get rid of with the throttle body mod.
