Where can I find out more about Demetris ports. IF you are really trying to make over 500hp (assume to the wheel) at 15lbs that would put you at 1.2 VE at 7k rpm or just over 1 at 8k. Best PP ports are known for that. So whats the secret?

the only way you're going to find out about Dee's ports is to pay him to build you an engine and then tear it down and look for yourself. Chances are they wouldn't be the same as his race ports even then.

Actually I worked my *** off 45+ hours a week over the summer, and have been working as a mechanic for a month now. I also have a LOT of good hookups. There would be no way I could afford to do this stuff without the hookup's (i got each turbo at almost 1/3 of the retail ) So at the end of this, I'm really not putting too much more into the car besides what I already had. Look at the price of a new T-51 kit...





good on u yeh i love hookups . im also in an apprentaceship beign a mechanic dotn know if u guys know what that is lol but u work in a garage and learn from the other traind mechas and goto a college to sit tests every month so u get papers saying u know what ur on about im workin for bentley the now every1 say ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhh
