Default Re: street heat vs. GT-40?

Porting an intake that increases the flow efficiency is always a good move - espec ially in racing, but when it comes to the hard earned $ of these guys, I don't make recommendations that are not good HP/$ returns for s street engine. If they tell me they are racing, then the recommendations change - application is key and this guy has not said he is racing. I also have a flow bench - but it's not serial #1.

I hope the mods take you up on your offer.

Edit, it also doesn't look good when you recommend porting some marginal street applications, it looks self-serving. People have come to trust my advice and that's important to me also.
