Does anyone have any decent pics of a ported or unported stock manifold? I'm considering doing this while stepping up to a 65mm TB, and wondering how much work it'd be to just do it on my own. Specifically, I'm looking for pics of where it mates up to the TB.

Thanks in advance!

 

Look up threads by manofaith..... he has some pics up...

what I'd like to see are pics of the BR ported parts

 

Ya, that's actually what I'm looking for, buschur stuff...not looking to copy per say, just avoid some downtime/extra cost since they don't do core exchanges.

I think most of the ones by manoffaith/ppi are all just overall pics of the manifold, not looking down the throat of the thing...

 

Bump! Pics anyone?

 

I found a thread on yahoo about porting manifolds, I can't remember exactly what i looked up but it was very interesting. I was thinking about doing it myself also but didn't want to do all the work taking out the manifold just for the port.

 

it can't be that hard, TB will be all unhooked to install it anyways, just yank off the fuel rail and the few accessories bolted to the manifold, then unbolt it right?

Good link.
Going off topic, I had no idea our throttle body is made by Mikuni.

 

I've seen those, I'm looking for a pic of the part that attaches to the throttle body.

 

ah gotcha, I purchased a manifold that was port matched to 65mm throttle body, I will see if I can dig up the pictures, buschur did the porting.

Honestly there is not much to porting the throttle section as it steps wide open after the opening. The area you are going to gain is the port matching towards the head. I was going to send a couple of intake manifolds to http://www.extrudehone.com/ but they are very pricey and don't believe the cost would benefit the amount of hp gains.

 

as stated there really isn't much to see on the t/b side. This is the only piq I have currently of how much material is removed for what its worth.

 

Been thinking about that myself, great thing is extrude hone can get to places you can't even with a long mandrel

 

Awesome, thank you manOfaith! Just what I was looking for!

 

your welcome

 

yup i got all my parts ported and coated from PPI. Their great with service and easy to communicate with unlike others who you would have to leave voicemails 99% of the time and wait for their calls.
