Local ppl dont use the flow bench machine to test the air flow after the PnP...they juz do Port n Polish according to their experience!So some ppl may loose hp after PnP......

There's a difference between ppl who knows and not knowing. If we dont have a bench flow machine it's not the end of the world. We still can port it correctly and gain horsepower. These are a few tips;

Mark the intake with a marker accordingly, port increment should be base on 1) piston size 2) compression 3) cam spec.

For experinece mechanics with thousand of porting experince, they knows what is the correct port size & how many mm to take the metal off.

For the finishing, use a torch light to check for each port size so that each of them are equals.

There is much more in depth "secret" within this that i must keep it closed:mouth_closed: so good luck to you & enjoy the porting game.
