khare's mk3 GTI...16v!

[Khare]

I had ported the throttle body a while back, but today I removed to give it a few more touches. It's not Ess_three's extreme porting, but it's porting nonetheless.

Any noticeable difference in drive yet mate?

[Khare]

Not driven it in anger yet as I only went for an "installation" lap, but I'm not expecting a noticeable gain from what I've done today, however from the standard throttle body to the ported one I now run there is a difference yes. Better and quicker response, and it sees to pull a bit harder mid-top end. It feels like it revs a bit more freely too.

Will organize another dyno day at JKM later on this year and let's see if I can crack the 170 mark.

You and Robin are the two I will always add to the list without even consulting you

Did you knife edge it as well?

[Khare]

No, don't want to push my luck! From what I remember reading a while back knife edging doesn't give that much gain, and get it wrong and it won't idle.

I'll pop down again, but won't be doing a f**king mayo challenge.

Update. Feels more responsive and seems to pick up better too. Will order more sanding drums for the dremmel and do further porting.

Will get a better pic soon, with the car cleaned too.

More updates soon.
