So i installed the the s/c I ported and polished today and took the car for a nice test drive. The car seems to be making the same amount of power or a little less, I cant realy tell. The car pulls a lot harder in 3rd gear than it used to. and the boost gauge is reading about 12-13 psi where before it was ported was reading about 15-16 psi.

so far im happy with it!

 

is it suppose to drop like that much?

 

i dunno, i took off so little material, you would never know it was ported, so its not like i fucked it up or anything. the car runs great, a lot smoother now. and the s/c is a little louder.

 

why would you porte and polish a s/c when you loss boost and make less power just to make the inside smoother? or am i missing something?

 

u wanna help me out with mine man? ill love u forever lmao!!!

 

i only said i think it feels like its making less power, im not sure because today was 95 degrees out, and i havent really pushed the car in the heat yet. Its not even noticeable.

and the reasoning is less boost=less heat. less heat= lower IAT's. If you can make the same amount of power on less boost, why not?

yeah dude im down.

 

huh i figured porting a blower would help make more boost and its suppose to help with keeping your AIT2 temps cooler

 

more boost isnt always a good thing. if his work is providing less backpressure within the blower and cooling the intake charge its probably making more power (correct?) you can make more efficient boost

 

ok i understand now always wonderend why people have been doing this!! thanks for clearing that up guys

 

more efficient boost is what i was going for. Opening up the blower a little, makes it more efficient. I also smoothed out the lip on the inlet side by where the throttle body bolts up.

Heat is the enemy 4E

 

nice, btw ur missing a comma in ur sig after the dc sport bar.

 

....ive really wanted this done man..how long did this take you??? cuz i wanna learn how t odo this ****!! soid be down to watch you do some of it!! i think this would work nice with my spray!!

 

hey where do u get ur spray at, moroso? jw

 

yeah man, the blower thats ported on my car right now is actually one of Joe's. Its not hard at all, you just want to make sure not to take too much material off. it took me quite a few hours to do. Its all about patitence and a steady hand.

 

redline you have enough power, you need tires haha

 

thanks, i'll fix it now.

 

Retard, I've had a ported housing for a while, you should have said something. I am going to kick you square in the nuts next time I see you for all the trouble your car has given me. Trans is out again right now (3rd time), the brand new slave is blown out/leaking. Can't see any visible damage to it, so it must have just failed internally.

That much of a boost drop does seem odd to me though... Could be the weather, it was hot as **** today.

 

^ i think its because his car dosent wanna be fixed.

 

I hear ya man...let me know...and what is joes?? the blower or his porting jobs???

and how long does it take you to polish your blower??? I want to paint mine black, but wouldnt that hurt the heat or something along those lines??

 

well you know our boost gauge, i can hardly ******* read it so it may be higher lol

 

I agree 100%. I'm thinking of just burning the car to the ground in my driveway...

 

how joe, i think i saw u, were u driving in boca a couple days ago on glades?

 

did u get teh new slave in yet or nah??? im dying over here without my car lmfao!!

 

The blower is from Brandons car. Geeze, do you even pay attention??

(ignore the hostility, its coming from your car. <3 )

Never, I hate Boca.

 

lol ahha.....no point right now...the track near me closed down so it sucks now!!
