side port intake, peripheral port exhaust. Can still make big power but be street drivable

Yes, "full" sideport as large as possible. Like the secundary maybe.
And then a little peripheral port, maybe 25-32mm ![]() |

I would suggest that only if you could stage them. Side ports optimized for low/mid-range power and driveability and have the peripheral ports activate at higher engine speeds to really open up the top-end. Unfortunately that would call for one hell of an intake manifold: 8 runners for the side ports, probably merging into less, and another 4 for the peripheral ports!

It's tempting, but complicated
![]() Last friday I recived some new parts. 1pc front, 1pc rear, and 3pc intermediate-plates from FD. But I'm still looking for good housings... I have 2pc S4 N/A-housings that I can use, the other two are just for mockup. The best would be to find 2 S4 N/A, or get 4 new ones... ![]() ![]() Let the mods begin :-) |

lol I would sell it to you for cheap. I just think the shipping would cost too much. I am not sure of the condition because I blew a Apex seal in the other housing. I was able to drive the car home on this one rotor an housing. However the engine is torn apart. And my mom wants it out of the garage.

Therapy!
Made me two custom-bolts with one side M10x1 to fit the front iron, and a regular M10x1.5, who is standard, on the other side. Just to make me a dummy ![]() Feels awsome to see the engine for the first time, even that it is a fake ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I almost forgot.
Here in Sweden we have an old auto-profile that we call "Bosse Bildoktorn". The translation is "Bosse the car-doctor" ![]() He has his own radioshow that people call and get help fixing their cars... Here he is with my "shaft" ![]() ![]() |
