Periphiral ported housings

Does anyone have a PP on a TII? Is it not a good idea? I wanted to know how well a PP would work on a turbo car.

Any info would be helpful. I'm thinking about getting the PP housings, but i want to go turbo, and i want to know how this will affect the performance.

my friend ran 12.3 in his Pported TII. The car weight is 2500lbs but thats just a general idea of what type of power the engine makes. If done correctly it can make around 300 hp without any adders. A turbo PP engine would be very very sick but I would think about running NOS on the motor before turbo. There is a fella from PR with a Pported NOS motor that runs 8.5 in the quatermile, although his car weights 1800 lbs it still gives you a good idea of what the car can make. What housings are you getting?

I don't even know if that would work?? even a bridge ported motor has problems with a turbo.

FYI you idle would be around 3000rpm. with power starting around 6000. it's not for a street car!

I was planning on geting the RB PP housings. It might be too extreme, maybe i'll just go with a turbo, and a street port. The PP does sound very intruiging though.

I wanted to build a car with a PP turbo, but I don't know if I want to rebuild my engine that often, and I'm sure it would be a pain to try and drive other than at WOT.
