I need to know how to wire the 5th and 6th ports open? and what are the benefits ?
Thanks for the help |
If you do wire them open, and the actuators are still good I want them.
|
Its not a mod, and there are no benefits. There are only downsides. I dont see why the hell people do it in the first place.

I removed my 6-ports altogether because the sleeves were frozen. I removed them, cleaned ALL of the crap off of them, repalced them, they worked for about 12 hours, then froze again. So, they be gone https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |

Wiring them open makes the car horrible below 3000 rpm. It bucks like a bronco and is a pain in the ass in traffic. The ONLY advantage is that the engine bay is less cluttered |
I found that the low end lost by the open ports was mostly counteracted by the low-end gain from gutting the cats...
I have pretty normal drivability at low RPM, UNLESS I'm going uphill, then the lack or tourque is very noticable. |
I can't stand the wired open anymore.. car doesn't move until like 6k

so it takes away what low end power i have that sucks

I can't see how a clean sleeve can seize again I cleaned mine and they still work perfectly after almost a year so obviously you have some other problem that needs to be fixed. Santiago |

Santiago And I would not claim it gives any more power, but it's a better option to open them if they don't work than to leave them closed if they don't work https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif |
