Sad to say that TriStateTuners will be going offline sometime around Oct. 15, 2024. After 20 years online, times have changed and its no secret that the forum's activity level has slowed to a crawl. Its been an incredible run with so many amazing friendships formed and community events held, plus all of the technical knowledge and entertainment shared online. I know I'm not the only one who has had both their personal and professional life impacted and improved significantly from this community, and I'm happy to have been a part of something so special. Thank you to so many people who volunteered to the community -- the entire moderating team, behind the scenes IT support, those who organized events, and everyone who contributed online to this unique local car community. I hope that many years after the prime of TST, many of you are still enjoying cars even if we are all "grown up" now. Please take the time to revisit your member journal and reminisce, or browse any other parts of the forum. Maybe reach out to an old friend or two and make plans to grab dinner and catch up. The timeline may change slightly but I wanted to get this notice up as quickly as possible to give everyone a bit of advance notice. Thanks for everything, TROLL

Having top end and torque is good. With that said, electric is awesome cause it has both. People's opinions may vary. Of course if you could dump $300++ into an air die grinder then I would probably have to reconsider. Anyway, never port and polish parts on a car if you have to lay on your back to do it. I had a buddy that got a splinter in his eye doing it this way, lol. Most people would say that port matching is the best bang for the buck. Keeping the intake side a bit rough and polishing the exhaust side seems to be the ideal way. __________________ - Wil 08 Sienna, limited AWD w/ laser guided cruise control, FTMFW!
