NeverEnuff PSR...With help by NA SVT, (Todd)

[NeverEnuff]

Here we go. ill start with saying this is time consuming...So far I haven't really needed any Air Tools...but I am sure a nice strong Air Compressor and Die Grinder would be SWEET......but...well, my compressor wasn't up for the task of it...so...time for a bigger better one...

Anyway...get are some pics..so far...

First, just cutting the bottom off.

Second is cutting up the middle of the intake...it has to be removed to be short runner

Third is a second pic of the cutting up the middle to start removing the runner and the bell mouths

Forth is some of the bell mouths removed...very time consuming...grab a beer and some ear plugs and eye protection...Dremel, works good. Getting about 1.5 ports cut and out per cutting wheel.

Fifth just another blurry shot.

Ill get more pics up when I can...

Im going to try, with the help of my Dad, chucking up the bell mouths in my lathe and seeing if I can get them all symetrical and damn near perfect...

THANKS TODD!!!!

lookin' good, Matt!

nice sig btw... :D We need to get you a banner made... :look:

Yes.,...Yes we do...First. I need a TAX ID!

[Black_Bullitt]

Git R Dun!!

[Speeddmn]

fuck tax! cash money wins all!

wait whats going on?

all i see is an intake and your cutting runners off. why this way as opposed to cutting in half, shortening one side, and welding back together?

Looking good Matt!

Shorten one side?

What?

Then the other side would still be 'longer' runner and would have different flow characteristics...it wouldn't work.

This isn't a 5.0 intake...it is a 04 Mach intake. This has been done before and proves to make power...anywhere from 20-40+rwhp in wild applications over stock. I have an extra stock one and a Sullivan intake I will be testing on my Big Bore build and see just what kind of gains I see over stock. Shortening the runners will give you high RPM capability, and porting them is obvious what it does.

Search NaztyPerformance

and look at his PSR intakes...

by shorten one side i meant if you went straight down the middle both sides, shorten say the bottem side and weld the flat part back on.

That is what I am doing. It isn't that simple. If you look at my pics there is a lot of material between the runners that needs to go, along with reshaping the bell mouths. You can't just 'cut' the runner and expect it to flow without a nice radius into the port.

and as short as I am making my ports, I can't 'just' cut the ports one length by cutting it once and welding the bottom back on. My ports are shorter than the 'floor' of where the intake meets the head...so its not like I can take the intake and slide it through a band saw, remove the unwanted port and weld the bottom back on...there is a little more to it than that. Shorting the ports isn't the ONLY factor here...flow, velocity, runner length...not just something you want to hack up and just put back together without research and knowing what you need...

[Black_Bullitt]

Werd to big berd.... Anyone can hack up an intake, hell even I could! lmao!
What Matt's doing is actually a fairly in depth process with lots of things to consider. (I have seen the write ups on how to do this and had Matt kinda explain it in detail to me over the past couple of nights.)

I can't wait to see what kind of gains this thing sees over stock. :t)

Is this strictly for a N/A application??

[NeverEnuff]

Is this strictly for a N/A application??

Not really...but yes, kinda. Depends on the motor combo and what you are running.

Now if I were add some more cubes and RPMS, I would stick with my Sullivan short runner. As the added cubes, compression and RPM would make up for the lack of air flow in the lower RPM area...

Being as these motors are already small...a very short runner intake doesn't help with the little cubes...

These types of intakes gain power pretty much everywhere across the board on a modded motor.


On the other hand...if you are just asking if my motor is going to be N/A...then yes...no more turbos. for now....lol.

No, actually I thought I came across a similar mod thread on DFWstangs.
