    Yeah, if you go all the way through, you will have to fabricate your own new butterfly valve because there will be too much clearance around it. If you have no experince in porting TBs, then I would have a professional do it...

    True that!!! Why port your TB if your not going to get the most out of it; port it the max that you can and make a new butterfly. Anything else is just pointless. If it's 100mm on the outside and 90mm where the butterfly is, guess what you still have a 90mm TB. Have a professional do it.
