Question Bridgeport Turbo on 10psi

Main reason I want a Bridgeport is coz the sound of it
I want to do a very small bridge port on all 4 ports just next to the stock port (no big of extend ports or anything)

I got 90’ seriesv turbo
Full exhaust 3’
Air filter
Rebuild with 3mm apex seal
Turbosmart boost control no more that 10psi boost

Will its BP turbo work ok with these mods.?

Thanks

Why only 10 psi? Seems a little low for a race motor.
If its a street car, don't expect too much life out of a motor like that.
3mm seals are not necessary.

This is the reason why I'm against BP engines.&nbsp This is just plain stupid to say you want to BP the motor cause you want the "cool" idle sound....

Go for it - don't come crying when the bridge lets go and trashes the entire engine.

bridge port turbo?? the majority of the people with ported turbo engines would go with a mild street port.. bridge is not needed with turbo.. it causes way too much overlap..not sayin that bridge motors arent nice.. they are nice cuz i have one but the i wouldnt go for it on turbo..

The stock ECU is not going to run a bridgeport! Besides, a tuned and installed Haltech will cost you less than a built and installed bridgeport...
