okay we have a torque motor device and we found out that we dont like its speed at all.

any way we can speed it up by opening it? (can we?)

otherwise, it's back to one the window motor i guess...

You can gear up the speed but that's about it.

I'm pretty sure your not allowed to open any motor and electricaly modify it, just like your not allowed to make your own motors.
