New TPI porting pictures.

Here's an album I put up of some of my recent port work. A few of the pics are of another members parts I just finished, which will ship out in the next few days, if you're reading this. Feel free to leave comments. Thanks!

Re: New TPI porting pictures.

Thanks! I go back far enough to get rid of the casting circles and I remove the huge hump in the middle of the later plenums, like yours. It adds some more plenum volume, and the more volume the better, as you know. I smooth everything out about 4" back. I also get rid of any sharp edges around the inside of the siamesed openings so the air flows smothly into the runner ports.

Great!
Did you ship the plenum and base, or just the base?
I'll need payment before shipping back to you.

Got your payment. Looking forward to doing the work.

Kingbambino22
I got an email from PayPal. It says that you accidentally sent me the payment for porting. Is there a problem?
I received the payment just fine. Just wondering if there was confusion on your end.
Please get back to me.

Thanks

Re: New TPI porting pictures.

I just got my upper plenum back from this guy and it looks fantastic. I sent it to him dirty and beat up and it comes back to me fully ported and clean and painted. Looks great. Thanks again.
