It was a really good first try and just take the advise about the insides no matter how rude they seem.


    And any advise that bill gives rude or not is always true. Bill is a book of knowledge
    He screwed the pooch on this one guy. All he had to do was either do some basic searching, or simply post a question about porting his case, and he would have come out with a nicely ported piece.

    Instead he jumped into it like so many others do, and screwed it up.

    I dont disagree with you copgtp. I searched and searched before I even took mine off then took 2 junk ones and practiced on, made a fixture for the mill and everything first.
    Research is always the key. There isnt a mod I have done without 2 months of reading up on it. Hell I was on this forum 6 months before I finally decided to buy a gtp and get away from the turboed honda I had

    Now I have a fixture I can bolt the blower case on and can port them quickly and keep all the angles right
    ported polished gen v, Ahcohol Injection Systems comp. trunk mount stg. 2 meth, 42lb 3" pulley headers built trans, xp hot cam
    blower port and outside polish pm me

    Hey, copgtp, you're one to talk about jumping into things, you haven't the slightest clue what he used. I'm his older brothe, I do know, we used a soft cloth with white rouge compound on the inner walls. I have since ridden in the car and it made a significant difference in his car. And concerning him not knowing anything, our dad has over 25 years experience building motors, I think we know not to change displacement in a P&P. Ease up, he's new to the forum and gtps, and he is 16 years old at that!
