V6 - we're all on the same team !

I am working on some ideas to make the car have much greater spool up down low and keep the same HP

So far I have done wonders with the stock exhuast manifolds - - the process involves extensive porting and polish with a dremel tool - - ceramic coating and then wrap and cover with the sheilds

The idea is to send as much heat and noise to the turbo as you can

Anyway - the car is still running every day and works 100% - - have not hit the snow yet but I cant wait

Al, I have in my office a spare stock header, and in my room here at home a Dremel with more bits than any man should rightfully own.

Care to share any pointers on manifold porting besides simply opening up to match gaskets with a nice taper?

Anything special in your 'extensive porting' job?

anyone extrude and hone the stock headers with jet hot? I'm thinking of doing this as well

The material is really hard, so I don't see how Al did it with a Dremel. I had a friend port mine, and he told me that he went through a few heavy duty professional grade grinding bits. He did a great job and even opened and smoothed out the bends. At some point during the winter, I'll take them off and have them coated with JetHot 2000.

Darn it, Al. I was gonna register here using your nick and confuse people by posing as the anti-Alfriedesq. This would entail being nice to vendors, underestimating my horsepower quotes, etc. etc.

j/k :p

your crazy if you do it with a dremel, it'll take forever

You just use the sanding drums - it takes about 4 5 packs to do the job

All I do is grind it till its all mirror smooth and the ends match up good at the joints
