Intersting... any #'s on how "Mild" of a port. like 1/4 inch? 1/2inch?

he was revving at me on the highway, and i rolled down my window and asked if he needed directions
then he told me about his mega awesome mods.
i dont think he would have been competition for a stage 2 cobalt.. just a heads up, slay the red altima coupe with the fart cannon.
I ran into the same one a week or two ago haha. He pulled up next to me at a light and revved a little then took off when it turned green, I controlled myself and watched him go...all the way to the next red light haha.

Honestly, I bet Matt would say to not even bother. There are plenty of other things to worry about modifying before you need to start porting the blower. But that's just my opinion...
Matt sends out the blower to be ported and polished, but he definatly likes the idea of getting it done. Anything that helps in cooling the SC, Matt is a huge fan of!

I got your text of the wheels. They're nice, but I'm really only a fan of all black wheels on either black, white, or silver cars for some reason. Black w/ polished lip would look sick. Not sure why theres a difference in my opinion, but....haha.

Free swap!?!? Not a bad deal at all haha. The key thing with all black wheels is that you have to keep the tires shining all the time to make the wheels look presentable, get what I'm saying? And window tint is a must hahaha, but you got that already. I mean there really isn't much to lose since its free I guess.

He learned that at 5.5lbs of boost, his AWD needs drags on all four corners. Smokes up all four tires and can't manage any traction. He put down close to 550whp and 650wtq to all four on 9.5lbs I believe. Oh...and his motor is built to handle like 14lbs of boost. WHAT WHAT?!?! That thing has 9's written ALL over it once traction is taken care of.

Sounds like the mean older brother of my car. I can't wait to see how he makes out. Must be nice to just throw drag radials on all four corners and be done w/ it. It's like a freakin' engineering nightmare to get my car to hook up properly...

You know what's funny? I was checkin some stuff out on one of the TBSS websites that I'm on, and they mentioned putting a Procharger on an 07 Vette, and low and behold....They were using 60lb injectors. Hmmm...It's ammusing that all of these peeps on this site make all the comments about those injectors not being able to handle the power that's being put down, and yet the LS2 Vette motor WITH a Procharger is using 60lbers as well..Things that make you go hmmm
