when going stage 2/hybrid q's...
« on: 13 November 2012, 17:31 »
just a few things such as

spark plugs.... are cooler ones needed? (what does this mean??!!!!)

if not using relentless manifold.... is it worth porting stock manifold?
as i got small ports anyway can i just use a mani with large ports??  :undecided:

there will be more but this just came to mind!!!

more info required mate!

Ko3 hybrid? ko4 hybrid?

porting WHICH stock mani? ko3 or ko4?]

Plugs wise, go for NGK BKR7E copper plugs. Best choice out there so long as you change them every 8k.

tell us more, and we shall answer more!

if he's fitting a ko3 hybrid like it says in his sig, the relentless is no use to him anyway  :whistle:

lol sorry!!! was in a rush earlier to get out of work!!

k03 hot side k04-023 cold.

just heard the exhaust side was a bit restrictive on port 3 or summit  :undecided:

shall i just port it?? im not gonna get meth, and i dont drive the car hard really, only the occasional blast so i see no point for the extra spend tbh, but once it has been mapped i DEFFO wont be messin with it again!!!

oh and ps... leave me alone  :grin:
