See what you don't know about porting is where my machinist BEGINS. Air does not flow how you believe it to. And you don't understand airflow as well as you may think. If you'd like to know why things are done the way they are, you may call us Mon-Sat 9-6PM and ask him why he does that way.
A large reason a lot of "gasket matching" and opening ports to ungodly volumes I NOT done is because the TIME SPENT does not equal the PERFORMANCE GAINED. If you have more questions, please feel free not to highjack my thread without proper knowledge of airflow and simply call us to clear up the matter. This is not a discussion, it's a show of our work. He'll be here tomorrow by 8:30 AM Pacific Standard time.

firstly you say that the time spent doens't equal the performance gained... this is nice so there is some performance... it's just not worth your time... but apparently is worth other people's time...
do i recommend gasket matching all exhaust mating surfaces... well it's nice to have them as uniform as possible. bu tyou can only do so much, and you can definitely do so much with the header pieces. also things after the turbo are flowing at much lower velocity and the kinetic friction head loss equations would suggest fewer head losses down stream of the turbo.
honestly i may not understand air flow that well... few people can as it's one of the most chaotic natural phenomenon known to man... but i know the equations...

I was being sarcastic, I meant the exhaust system after the turbo.

I can't believe you're such a person. First, you argued with him regarding the porting stuffs and sounded like he's going against Buschur. Then when thing didn't look so good, you played a cheap-shot on him.

You're saying it's a cheap shot to call someone out for promoting products here without being a registered vendor? Excuse me for protecting our paying vendors, sheesh. Btw, he didn't have all that personal sales info in his sig when this thread began, so I had no reason to point it out right away.

Actually. I was showing off MY manifold, and letting people know it CAN be duplicated. I did NOT come on this forum and show a product and a price. If people like my manifold, they should be able to have theirs done!
