Maxbore question
 
So on maxbores site they advertise port matchin ont the opening of intake manis for an extra $70 on top of the tb service. Think its worth it?

I think that sounds pretty fair. I don't think it would be really noticeable on your butt dyno but I'm sure it would free up the flow nicely. I would do it.

go for it....

SpeedSixxx 12-24-2009 05:20 PM

holeinmypocket 12-24-2009 09:30 PM

The one thing that i wonder is it says is intake manifold OPENINGS so its not a full p&p i dont think. Hmmm

no, its just the throttle body opening. after the maxbore throttle, there is a VERY small lip. just DIY with a dremel.

if you take the IM off you will see the lip. You dont even have to enlarge the hole. just remove the lip.

save yourself the hassle of removing the IM and do it yourself.

Well, to DIY you'd still need to remove the intake manifold.

I thought there would be room to do it in the bay?

I'd prefer to pull the mani and make damn sure there is no metal left over in the mani.
