Single port VS Split port


Ok im wanting to put a turbo on this summer from TMA Turbo just the street one would it be worth it to just get a split port on it too? Keeping in mind im in high school and have a low budget on things like this.

40hp from just the splitport. with the turbo it would probably be 100 more than a turbo on a single port setup.

yur in high school and you have a low budget, but you want to spend a few Gs on a turbo?


Thats doesnt make much sense. Low budget is like whats a cheap exhaust or intake. Not how do i spend 3-4k the cheapest.


Ya gotta pay to play.

dont get the split port, go to a junkyard and get the windstar intake, do the swap. but otherwise split port is the way to go. (keep in mind theres a reason the factory changed tosplit port in the first place. no matter what you gets without a port job your just killing your wallet for no reason.

i was just thinking that. a windstar wont work without splitport heads. and the reason the factory changed was to make more power. /FAIL

there are a few thing wrong in this

1 the windstar intake is a split port intake. meaning you need to do a split port swap first. because you will still need the heads, lower intake, and new fuel rails.

2 how is getting 40hp at the crank for 500+ shipping killing your wallet. that is a little over $12.50 per hp that is about the best deal you can get, except maybe n2o

don't get me wrong getting it P&Ped is good and maybe even as good or better hp per $ however it isn't the only way for it to be worth while.

if you go turbo just PNP your heads and intake and go turbo it will grant you all the power you need

me i would get the p&p split port from chris. That way you have more power for the turbo to boost.

150hp+turbo=fairly fast
200 or so hp (dont know how much p&p adds)+turbo=faster

look at it like this these are factual numbers
single port v6 10psi made-269rwhp and like 360rwtq.
split port v6 10psi- 33rwhp and 410rwtq--those are Andys numbers..most make about that 330-340rwhp area...

stock motors just turbo kit...as you can see the difference is huge and well worth it

oh one more set of numbers

440rwhp 12psi v6, ported big valve heads, ported upper and lower intake.

I will be running 8.7psi with ported upper and lower and my own ported heads(not big valves yet) and a regrind 212/212 cam and expecting over 400rwhp with that setup. 8.7psi dyno tuned.

please learn the fact before you post so you dont spread around false information

to the OP.. do the split port swap. easy 40 hp and more hp potential
