6 ports, with race pipe :D

So boys, I got the race pipe on!

Sounds so nice, the 6 ports open fine(or so i think) the car pulls nicely all the way threw the RPM range, whats a good way to determine the ports not opening? Also, whats the air pump doing if the catalytic converters are off?

Thanks,

Evan

Pumping air into the atmosphere.

The sound of an opened up n/a is pretty cool from inside the car, but I think it sounds aweful when you're not in it. But it depends a lot on the entire system. If you're running a cheapo pipe + stock mufflers, ick.

dude the air pump supplys air to the air control valve. so if you dont have one then no 6 ports. if you have the small hose connected then the 6 ports should work without having to remove airpump

What kind of "race pipe" did you get? Where did you get it, and how much did it set you back?

Get rid of those port actuators and get a blockoff plate, then remove the airpump
