Polishing intake runners

scotty305 · 11-16-2010, 12:04 AM

Cool thread. I have occasional access to a flow bench if people are interested in before/after testing or comparisons. There are some rough assumptions that must be made: mainly that the engine doesn't suck a smooth steady stream of air like the pump in the flowbench, there are quick pressure (vacuum) fluctuations as the engine 'gulps' air in while the intake ports are open. It will probably be a while before I get around to testing intake manifold porting or modifications on my car, but if anyone local wants to stop by and measure their setup(s) feel free to send a PM.
