Title: Thinking about an engine "refresh"
Post by: strange_days_uk on March 09, 2007, 04:34:21 PM
Last comp test showed 6 1/2\'s all round.

That was 3 or 4 months ago, and lets just say I have been "enjoying the single life" since then

The car feels a little more sluggish to me these days, and sometimes doesn\'t want to pull away very well although this could be put down to minimal back pressure because of the exhaust setup

I desperately want a dirty great porting also, and my clutch needs repacing.

Trying to get an idea of price atm.  I could get it all done in time for the summer.  I have all the supporting mods (apart from suspension and drivetrain) already in place for a huge great extended big street port, whatever is the one before a bridge !

Thoughts ??  :xconfused

You might just be getting used to the power? But don\'t let me stop you, any excuse for porting :Thumbs-up

but yeah, I wanna dirty great port and if I can save money by getting it done prior to boomtime, and get the clutch done also...
