If you're losing power after porting then you upset the airflow!! You created turbulence in the flow somewhere. Think about it!!! Absolutely no way you can lose power adding more air through the engine. Unless the flow has been disrupted.
Idk $250 buck was worth my gains intil I can save enough for the MSD. I saw 15 HP all over the entire graph. Also seen 25 tq. Cordes Performance tuned as well. There is always not a spot in the graph where the power or torque were less. All cars are different, right? My C8 intake is not ported.
To be complete honest. I think this is flawed because it’s not test in the same car.
I have done this very test same day and same car and the lt2 is better mid range and up than lt1 even out of the box. Porting isn’t worth much above that. And we tested against msd same day. Same afr. Same timing. Same everything on the same car.
This is proof that Chevy's engineers still show great efficiency even at the factory level, save your money and buy mods that prove to work on your motor
Quick question, sense the C8 vettes have LT engines, would you also be tuning/modding them as well?
The next t shirt… its your money..i dont care…
I got my camaro with this intake on it should I buy a oem lt1 manifold for it?
What were the mods those cars had?
I think an unported LT2 intake setup would have been a better comparison to that stock LT1 intake setup. Just sayin.

CSP and Gwatney show gains… what is happening
What about the l86 truck intake is that any better than the lt2 intake for a truck application

How about you swap the two intakes between the two cars? Because not every engine is going to make the same power
