Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
This is a 91 with just a cat back exhaust, before and after intake porting. This is a really old dyno and it has less aggressive porting than I do now but you can see the rpm range - gains start around 4200rpm.

Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
Cheap..... Considering the work that goes into doing a good porting job, Where else can you buy horsepower at that rate?
And the nice thing , it is not adding additional stress to your engine, it is only making it more efficient.

Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
Is this just the plenum ported or the fuel injector housing as well?

Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
How much power does it usually add? Is it 20-30 WHP?
I assume you have to retune after this mod?

Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
Thats a safe #, 20-30 RWHP. Tuning will optimize...however the power levels vary based upon the health of the motor and were the cam timing is from the factory.

Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
That's awesome that you and LGAFF both offer a good price on the porting. How much power will you pickup with porting the TB & air horn. Should you get a Marc H or other chip after the porting, how much power would you be leaving on the table without it?

Re: ported plenum and injector housings..
You have to get the chip e-programmed, otherwise there will not be a significant difference in performance. When you give it more air you have to give it more gas. Expect your mileage to drop slightly, more if the heads are done. It's addictive, when I had the heads done and headers, no cats dyno tuned the HP climbed through 6500 leveled off and did not drop off through 7200. If I had the cash I would go 415..........................Wheres my ride Ted?
