ok, removed the sleeves, the power sucks at low rpms, but around 3800 rpms it feels like boost kicks in. all i need now is to remove everything from the lim and port and polish and get new gaskets. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

dont fool yourself with added power and GETTING power at certain rpm, u dotn feel power changes when the sleeves are working, while u do feel a "kick" when running without them, doesnt mean the car isfaster u just feel the CHANGE in power, the gains without sleeves are minimal and if u are ok with less low end and happier abotu teh top end u gained then so be it. but dont fool yourself with the "KICK" and thinking its more power

yeah, i concur, it takes forever to get my car warmed up where it wont die, and it feels like its actually slower, im gonna cry https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

Some carb cleaner and a bit of elbo grease would get those working again. Its prolly just gummed up with carbon. I would think that if your willing to go throught the effort of pulling off all the stuff it would be just as easy to get them working. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif



Gregory

yeah its only like a 2 hour job.



mine with the sleeves open all the time felt like a single turbo, it had NOTHING under 4500, and then it would come on the powerband about 6000 and peak at its normal 6800....



vs the working 6 ports power everywhere
