intake manifold porting/swap
« on: November 05, 2009, 10:13:22 PM »
I decided that spending an hour to take off the turbo/ intake manifold was to long. So I wanted to switch from the n/a six port, to the turbo four port intake manifold. So i had to port the shit to fit. I dont have a compressor, so i had to use a drill with a drill-saw bit.


Turbo left, n/a right 5 extra inches of clearance  :o


Turbo gasket on top. Have to woller out the turbo manifold to the size of the n/a manifold


Drill saw cuts through aluminum like butter.


Had to fill in some casting voids with jb weld.


Came out good enough without a die grinder or dremel.

Your porting looks like ass. Why didn't you finish it?

No kidding. In the time he spent taking the pics and posting this thread he could have ported it better.

Well like I said dip shits, all I had was a drill and a drill saw. Plus these wernt final pics, just some I grabbed 3/4 of the way in.

And does it fucking matter? Is boosted, as long as the air makes it into the motor im happy.
