Default Siamesing done !!

Hello Friends !!
I have just put my car together after a siamesing job and I must say that it really response to the throttle and it seems to pull harder all the way up to 5200, and I must say that I have not felt any loss of power in the lower rpm almoust that I have more. I will be back with further information from the strip. Here come some pic´s ,,sorry for the bad camera.

WOW!! Nice job! Welcome to the forum :cheers:
How much did you remove from #5 #7 intake ports on the lower base?
I did the same as you. Siamesed the lower intake. I ruined mine. Took too much out. I hope you have good ET & speed at track. :cheers:

Hello Friends!!
Last year did i run a best time at 14,56@94mph on an airfield with very bad traction. I had only removed the screens and opened up the exthouse a little bit. Then I hooked up my comuter to the car and was driving a best time of three on the street with 14,48@90mph, Now in the past days I have been testing a couple of runs with really bad traction but did run 13,41@96mph. The mods in siamesing like I discribed above, opened up the thermostat, made my own AFPR put on 50psi, opened up the aircleanerlid, and moved the IAT. I was even trying with an old chip that I had but it run like crap. It seems to me that I cut almoust a sec on this simple mods and I must say that I have much harder pull from 2000 to 5000rpm.
I must say Thanks to Jonas Bylund for his exellent program for PC.
