I know when I say this that I'm a racer on a budget most of you feel me. I have a black GXl with K@N intake, single exhaust, MSD ignition, T2 tranmission, tokico shock, and some other various things but the qusetion I wanted to ask was.......



A. how much power increase am I lookin at if I get a street port.

B. not to sound like a ninie but how much worse on gas is this?

C. Is there any new things I would have to do for maintenance



I'm fairly new to the porting thing and lookin for the right port to pursue. thanks.

Thumbs down

HP Gains depend on the size of the port.

Gas consumption will be higher.

A Street Port is usually good for any where from 25-45 hp depending on size of port, and it will use more gas but who cares, as longs as you stay out of it during normal driving, it shouldn't be too much

What about passing emissions? Anyone have experience with (or getting around)this?

slip the guy a 100 spot, and he'll hook up his civic to the machine, and give you a sticker.
