    Tvanlant is his screen name. Moparrulzs or however you spell it and TU are the same thing.

    I emailed Tyler (haven't heard back yet) and TU doesn't have the IM on their website.

    Data? well sure! I'll go right out and get those flow/dyno numbers for you....not

    Okay seriously...I was just trying to offer some help to the original poster so they had some options. I thought the pictures might help and be self explanatory. Word of mouth is good but results can be either visual or in performance or both I can't give the second one or else I would have.

    Yes my car is running...just not fast always has been except it looked like a heap-o-crap last time you saw it! I don't have the new engine/trans in yet no...honestly I've lost the interest due to a mixture of things.

    Maybe this winter...trying to work on career goals and a better standard of living for now.

    I don't quite understand the "brail" thing. Is it: A) the porter was Ray Charles... hence the brail comment B) the lumpy runner shot resembles brail?

    Ok.... I'll stop with the jovial fawking around now

    A was pretty funny

    but if u were to take a look at my intake thread and my runners, the pictures do not do justice for the runners. sure they could be a bit smooother, but they def are alot smoother then they look in the pictures. however I went to town on my intake and completely re shaped the runners for more of a straight shot (easier to do on #2 and 3 since they have less angle then 1 and 4) there is no comparison to mine and a stocker

    the pope did a nice job there and by the looks of things he cleaned out the humps as best as he could without trying to break through with zero weld

    I will agree. I put 30 hours into my 2-piece lower a few years back, and the flow results REALLY paid off more than I had expected. Do a search on my intake flow study on this forum.... someplace out there

    the pope did a nice job there and by the looks of things he cleaned out the humps as best as he could without trying to break through with zero weld
    In all actuality... surface finish really doesn't gain you much. A smooth as silk porting job really doesn't tell the tale at all. It's what us porters do to the unknowing public who demands that a mirror finish *must* mean it flows kickazz. So, in defense of Rob (yeah... I hate saying it) a lumpy finish really doesn't tell the tale. But I will say, in one shot of the runner way inside (THE most important part) it doesn't look like much was addressed there at all. That is the reason why, and the key area as to why I put so much time into mine. That transition of round to rectangle, keeping a certain taper, yet increasing volume. When you tap a stock lower, it has a pronounced "ring" to it, tap the ported unit, and it's much lower in pitch (moparloper here can attest to this as he read and saw it all in person)

    Mine might be up for sale.... but I would never get back what I put into it, and I had even better ideas on the plenum. I might as well just hold on to it if I ever get the 8v bug again.

    Do a search on my thread, and you'll see some amazing results that I wasn't expecting.

    (fwiw: the "humps" only gained me like 2-3 cfm on *two* intakes I removed them on... (1-piece and 2-piece)

    I can't take 100% credit for the results, as some of my ideas were just common porting practices, but a majority were copied from 5digits famous 2-piece intake after talking with him many times on this subject.
