I say remove them. I dont see any big gains from the pineapple sleeves once you've removed them.

NO!

The runner ends in a dead end about 3 mm behind the port. That creates a lot of turbulence, and really hurts airflow. Removing the sleeves will NOT result in ny worthwhile gains as opposed to having them in there, operational or not(as long as theyre open).

If youre too lazy to fix your 6 ports, then wire them open. Youre only losing power by removing the sleeves on a stock port motor.

And like I said before, theres SO much more to driving than only having usable power from 5000 rpm to redline. You dont drive a race car, and its not a race track, so why act like its a race car?

FAF members? Does membership come with free Type R stickers, or do you have to pay extra? ...must be a ricer thing...

The only thing your "data" is going do it make the people here who actually know stickers dont make your car go faster fall out of their chair laughing at you.

Obviously my personal experience with the ports wasnt enough for you to listen to my opinion. You didnt like what I said, and looked for someone saying something you wanted to hear, even though it was *** backwards.

Your friend was acting like he knows secrets about removing the 6 ports. There are no secrets for a stock block, period. If he says anything otherwise, he doesnt know what he's talking about. If you can suck it up, and actually listen to someone who has more experience with 6 ports than anyone who posted here(with the possible exception of evil aviator), then you can learn something. Theres too many people on here who are wrong, but refuse to listen to people who know better than them, and they blindly defend it to the end. Im so ******* sick of seeing that.

The only secret it takes to run 15's is a stock FC with a good driver...

The manifold I am working on is not even on the car yet..


Pull your heads out of your ***, before I straighten you right out.

You have no idea what I am doing with the manifold, so just keep acting like you do. Cause you don't know ****.

I am making a copy of a racing manifold that was custom almost 10 years ago I saw some pretty amazing dynos that came out of storage.

So you keep playing with your ports..... Enjoy them..


Leave your advice and nothing more..
Can you understand this?


PS: I got condoms older than you..

FAF Racing OWNs you.

Don't be flaming our FAF Racing club man. That's not cool. I guess since you don't have a club of your own or that you belong to, so you are somehow jealous of our RX7 club? There are a few of us in the club but we love working on our cars and making them faster. Is that ricey? I personally have a 1987 Turbo II...so I guess I'm a ricer too. Get real.

I agree it was very childish for Mazdaspeed 7 to write the things he did. It really shows his age.


We got what he wrote and didn't flame him or say he was wrong...I am sure he is right about the ports, but I am not changing any of that area, so it didn't really apply to me anyways.


I was amazed to see how much this 19 year old knows about RX7s..But yet has no idea what I am doing and to go off about what I want to do is totally immature..


It was more like I am here tootin my horn can everyone hear me... I am GOD...

Grow up kid.. I was drinking on River St, since you was 10 years old..

PS: We got members up there, I was stationed @ Hunter Army base for years in a Ranger Battlion.

So chill out...
