...then explain to me the constant *BRAP* in the video he made on http://www.velocity.isfaster.com (he still had the half-BP at the time)?

In the two videos I've got of his car the idle is very smooth. I did see a video of the car after the full bridge and it had the bridgeport idle.

Alf's car had a nice smooth idle.

I dont know what your talking about my has the characterstic bridgeport idle

Maybe Jason is referring to a 6-port N/A motor Otherwise, on the T2, even if only the primary throttle butterfly is open, all four intake port runners are open and will make the engine idle w/ the characteristic 'bruh bruh bruh' noise high overlap produces.

Nah, I've only ever heard Alf's. I had a discussion with someone at TeamFC3S about the smooth idle on that car and decided it must be because of the sequential throttle. Nobody bothers with half-bridges over here. All or nothing.

The primary and secondary runners are completely seperated within the manifold. If they weren't the sequential throttle wouldn't work. So at idle and low-throttle (secondary throttles closed) only the primary ports flow. But you've got way more experience with this than me so if you say it braps then it braps, and I stand corrected. Now I just gotta figure out why...
