I picked up my ported housings from Atkins rotary today. They look great and I am happy. They have been ported to a mild street port and polished. The exhaust has also been ported on the rotor housings. Dave at Atkins said if I leave the sleaves out the sucker should scream over 5000 rpms. I don't know though, I still might go with the Pineapple sleaves.

Looks good...I really don't see the point in those sleeves anyways, I'd leave them out...I didn't have them in my NA for about a week and it seemed fine.

:bigok:

One more.. B)

looks good

Leave the 6 port sleeves out and see what you think. You can always put them back in if you want to.

Sounds like a good idea, I will leave them off at first.

I'm sure you'll like it.

You should also see if you can grind out that exhaust diffuser in the port...it will hurt your performance. T2 housings don't even have 'em....

I was going to mention that, why don't they take them out when they port the exhaust ?????

My only concern is in the 4th pic, it looks like the aux port edge is extremely close to the oil seal tracking, closer than my stock port is. Shouldn't they have just left that edge alone?

Looks good! :bigok: Now for the fun part; trying to put it all back together. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

How much did it cost you? $300?

Yep, it was 300 for the porting and polishing and then another 125 for the used housing. I want to start putting it back together this week, but I broke a corner seal and need to get one. I keep on forgeting about it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

nice. maybe I should send mines out.

hmm looks like we still have some work left on our center housing! :flush: https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...iss-monkey.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/mellow.png

Did you see that I posted pics of it the other day (no one responded though :( )



Let me know when you need it. (Soon, I hope)





LINK TO EXHAUST PICS. In case you didn't see them. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif

ILUV, I saw your pics...don't worry, you post didn't go un-noticed https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

I saw it didn't go unnoticed, they've had 32 views. Everyone always asks me about the exhaust on there (true dual), so I figured I'd devote a thread to it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif

Exhaust looks good. What kind of muffler is that?



Is your O2 Sensor really plugged into only the rear rotor? What kind of header is it? My Racing Beat has the O2 sensor further under the car.



The real question is, How loud is it?

The mufflers are a generic "race" muffler from the local ricer shop. I paid $300 for the pair. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif



The header is the RB road race header, with a bung for the O2, and a "split air pipe" for the 5th and 6th ports. Yes the O2 is only plugged into the rear rotor. The exhaust is uncollected dual exhaust, so they have to pick one or the other. <_<

It isn't too loud now, I made 2 plugs to shove into the muffler tips. That helps the noise, but killed the power. Before I put in the plugs, It was WAY ******' loud. I got ticketed twice for it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif i can't wait to hear it unplugged on Isamu's ported engine. But I bet it will be one fast mofo. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



Isamu, while the car is all pulled apart, you should strip as much unnecessary weight out of it. Get that bitch as light as possible. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Yea I agree. I already tossed the AC, but I kinda like the power steering. I was thinking about replacing my clutch since it is all apart, but we'll see what money dictates.The stock one looks ok. What else do you think I should ditch to drop the weight? I had my eye on an aluminum hood, but I haven't talked to the guy in a while. I know, I really want your exhaust, but can't give up my stock stuff until I smog it. Hmmmm...... I see a private message in your future ILUVMY88CABRIO https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

When? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



I'd keep the PS, unless you can find a manual rack. Can't go wrong with a light weight flywheel either. Pul up all your carpet, remove insulation/padding. You can also remove the sound deadening ****, I've heard that you can either heat it up, or freeze it to get it off. There are other things that can be removed. I can't think right now, I'm off work, my brain has now shut down.

I want to come up there one of these weekends to check the car out.

I removed my P/S and plugged the holes in the rack. It's not too bad once you get used to it. A manual rack isn't much easier.
