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.

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.

Now all I need is your exhaust
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.

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.
