Many questions.
alright i posted here once before and asked a few questions about the N/A 13B from a 91 seven. everyone was really helpful.
so here are a few more questions:
stock apex seal sizes?... whats needed to go bigger? if anything? how does it affect compression?
has anyone ever tried to cryo the apex seals?
best/cheapest performance gains?
Stock Compression ratio?
who does their own porting?
so here are a few more questions:
stock apex seal sizes?... whats needed to go bigger? if anything? how does it affect compression?
has anyone ever tried to cryo the apex seals?
best/cheapest performance gains?
Stock Compression ratio?
who does their own porting?

2. yep. www.FC3s.org still does, IIRC.
3. putting on a cone filter and getting free flowing exhaust are the only major power gains for an N/A.
4. 1989-1991 N/A 13B had 9.7:1 compression rotors.
5. Lots of people. I do several different versions of porting styles.

thanks for the replies guys.
i read some stuff on the differences between 1 and 2 piece apex seals and i think that 1 piece are supposed to lower compression.
i also read that they make ceramic seals... which are harder than the original seals and that they perform much better, and wont break nearly as easy(but are also a lot more expensive). thats why i asked about just cryoing the stockers.
