You wouldn't want a PP port as a daily driver...I can't see for the life of me why you'd want a half bridge as a daily driver, but it's been done before. I drive a modest sideport with a huge exhaust port and an HKS t-45S so I know about lag and top end pull, but I also like to be able to hear if sirens are coming

come on jspecracer7 you know that is never enough! It is fun being def and scaring people when you shot fire *****. I am just going to make one giant hole the size of plate, it will idle a 5k but that's ok.



If this is your first 7 and your are going Partial P expect to rebuild it in a alot shorter amount of time than a sideport. Have an extra motor ready

after dealing with IGY's bridgeport for a year...I won't go bridge unless I have a daily driver with a/c and p/s.

I owned a 13B P/Port for about 9 months and found that it was fun doing burn-outs but **** for a daily drive. Idled at 2K and only ran nice above 5K. Strong motor but very short life span.But heaps of fun...

Why would a pp have a short lifespan? If done properly I would think they should last a good while.
