I've just got back my GT cylinder had from porting. It's up from a peak 50-55CFM to over 70CFM. So a fair increase in flow ~30% and that's about the same across a wide range of lifts. It's basically flowing a lot more even when the valve is partially open, which is where it spends most of its time.
Now it was and possibly still is destined for an N/A build. But it's got be interesting to see what an increase like that could do to a G40 with the usual mods: filter, 65mm toothies, GT inlet, G60 injectors, 4 branch and a chip to suit.
Issue: it doesn't have sodium valves. Should I care? Has anyone actually burnt out standard valves on a G40 or turbo conversion? Surely the main factor to consider is exhaust gas temps. Any insight into likely differences between N/A and boosted? Suitable peak figures for standard valves?
P.S an AFH head will flow twice what a standard GT will without porting. 100CFM. Apparently the ports are really good. Brap!
