Long came by earlier and picked up his housings. He seemed pretty happy with the porting I did. I tried to talk him into going a little higher with the exhaust port, but I think we came to an agreement on a good sized port without much overlap. He was so excited that he went straight home to assemble his engine This 12A is going to have some nuts behind it!

Looks nice Josh, Did you paint it black and yellow? Is that where the Bumble bee comments stems from?

Sweetness.......Those ports look better in the pictures. I wish I could have spent more time on them, but Josh is happy. That's all that matters. Since Long will be nipping at my bumper with his 12ABPT, I am going to have build something bigger

You better add a couple more zeros to that

DJ, your boost creep is because your exhaust is too big, and you don't have enough backpressure. Porting the wastegate is your only option without redoing your exhaust. With the stock wastegate, your exhaust shouldn't be over 2.5".
