still not sure about porting the blower..

ive order an newer car dc5 type r facelift from japan..should be with me end sept gonna put jackson on it. went for FL has Stronger Anti roll bars stiffer body.. some say the gearbox 4th gear is longer, thats why the FL is a Tad quicker then pre facelift.

Looks good man. Nothing like a fresh rebuild to set your mind at ease. The new dc5r should be nice too- same color? I'm picking up my dc5r k20a motor/ trans today...;)

Found these photos..

i can get a local machine shop to do exactly this but is this correct?

Any expert help appreciated. thanks

Anyone Recommend best Header for Ported JRSC around 11psi..

Currently using a Toda should i stick with it or upgrade as only has 2.3in collector

plus is it worth going 3in exhaust?

thanks

My Kidd racing race header works really well- supported well over 400whp and is built very well. 3in exhaust will def pick up some power.

Yep- exact same header. If you go for a 3in exhaust- you can modify the supplied test pipe to fit if needed- no need to hack up the actual header. I've had mine for 3+ yrs now with no issues.

The Plm header performs really well- especially for the money. I have no clearance issues with my oem ep3 front sway bar- I have more than enough room. It also fits if you ever wanted to use a taller k24 block.... Just saying
