I've heard/read conflicting information on porting a 6-port motor. I always thought it'd be nice to have bridge-ports on the auxiliaries.



What personal experience do you guys have with porting a 6-port? What advantages, or disadvantages are there? Is there a "best" port format for a 6-port?

Theres a couple of other threads i posted lots of info in, and I dont really feel like retyping it here. Bottom line though, is that I have an aux bridge on my S5, and it doesnt work. It should work much better on a S4, but I dont know for sure.



do a search for aux bridge and my username, youll find my posts

mine would most likely be an S4. Is the VDI what makes the major difference in this case?

sweet! yeah, I have a trashed s4 sitting in my yard. I don't really have the time to play with it; I wish I had someone nearby that would experiment with it, whose should I could look over.

Thanks man. Can I change my forum name? A couple members have seen the word "Integra" and foamed at the mouth.
