I just got rid of that 18g and have a 28r on the same manifold and a 3\" elbow downpipe. Very nice street setup.

Although i would gain some high end by porting, i'd loose some low end and this is my DD so... Yea, I do have the Greddy elbow laying around, looking for one?Almighty-Si wrote: I think you would benefit greatly porting the head. What are the plans now or you going to leave it the way it is? Oh by any chance do you still have the GReddy elbow laying around?
I don't think that you would lose that much and it might help bring the torque up higher in the rpm range making it a little flatter. I bet it feels sweet though regardless. How much you want for it ? I don't really need it, a friend is looking to upgrade his elbow but can't afford the down time with his car so he needs it basically to copy the bend.TheGuardian wrote:Although i would gain some high end by porting, i'd loose some low end and this is my DD so...

I few bucks + shipping...not much, what is his zip code? And yes...she already pulls pretty hard @Bugermass: So if I upgraded to a Blox or Skunk 2 intake manifold that should help my top end correct?Almighty-Si wrote:I don't think that you would lose that much and it might help bring the torque up higher in the rpm range making it a little flatter.

His zip is 27587...let me know.TheGuardian wrote:I few bucks + shipping...not much, what is his zip code? And yes...she already pulls pretty hard @Bugermass: So if I upgraded to a Blox or Skunk 2 intake manifold that should help my top end correct?
I didn't relize you installed a skunk 2 intake, I have always thought by adding that on a b18b the powerband would be moved to high up in the RPM range. Are you sure the cams are the problem? I've read of stock b18b heads supporting up to 500whp, and thats with the stock intake as well. Honestly I think the biggest restriction in our setups is the greddy exhaust manifold.ckretvix wrote:With the 28r and a skunk2 intake i've noticed the powerband doesnt drop off (You can see it in the fuel graph to) as much up top as it normally does, but I blame the stock cams more then anything. That manifold does suck for flow though.
