guineag60 Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Gotcha. Not sure why you'd even try to run rectangle ports on top of cathedrals. Where are you getting rectangular ports? its a catherdral intake and he is running 243's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Looks rectangle here. But I've never seen the inside of a fast. Lsxrt's are available for cathedral and rectangle port heads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLNAWAY Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Looks rectangle here. But I've never seen the inside of a fast.

The_aSSet Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 And it looks like its rectangle outline on the port. Yea its probly not a good idea to mix the 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02orangepeel Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) heres the deal guys im not trying to rip off anyone i bought this intake off a member on pt.net he told me the intake ran fine on his truck im more then positive its my TB leaking i had a EVAP smoke machine on this thing and the intake wasnt leaking anywere i could see were the two havles meet but i did notice the TB shaft was leaking on my NW 92MM TB. ive also replaced every o-ring and seal on this intake since i bought it used IMO i think its my tune not being dead on and my TB leaking. ive talked to geoff at EPS and he told me most likley my tune isnt right he said these intakes are tricky and if you haven't run into one as my tuner did with mine there going to blame the intake. as far the the ports go its 100% a cathedral port intake im running 243 heads on my LQ4 as far as i know you cant buy a LSXRT for a rectangular port only the LSXR for the cars like the vettes and camaros. as far as not having it posted on pt.net i had more then a few offers to trade or buy it before i even had the chance to post it over there so i never felt the need to post it on there sorry if i made anyone feal as if im trying to so call dump this intake on this site .

02orangepeel Posted September 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 yup that was mine he figured it was the intake leaking it def ran a ton better after he so called tuned it but it still wasnt right . like i stated before i put a EVAP smoke tester on the truck to see if the intake was leaking i couldnt find a leak anywhere on the intake but my NW 92MM TB was leaking from around the throttle shaft were the TPS mounts and on the opposite side as well were the throttle cable mounts pretty badly must i add. i really dont wanta get into a pissing match nore do i wanta say anything bad about don he's a standup guy if you have any questions about this whole deal just sent me a PM ill be more then glad to tell you in depth about the whole story.

f1ss Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Ive sent a couple GMC's on my road and at the condo complex in town to Don and they came back to me and thanked me as they had handheld tuners and we all know the live/dyno tune is best with the right tuner. Their just mad they cant run my truck yet with their tunes in their 5300 Vortecs. Now Im curious to see how a stock LQ9 tune will run against a live tuned 5.3???

Dmarian907 Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 I believe its not a faulty lsxrt fast my I read the whole thread and pt.net and its proven in the thread that its the tb leaking but with saying that kurt I personally thunk you are wrong about it bein cath port because we just put my friends on and his ports were not rectangle they were cath and I think that's why you couldn't tune it to not stall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran my 5.3 full bolt ons with custom tune vs an ss stock with tune and an ss with bolt ons and beat both of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f1ss Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Pretty shitty if you ask me, selling screwed intake and trying to pass it off as good and its sad you jump on a bandwagon that you know nothing about. Kurt has been on here much longer than you. Some newbs just have absolutely no repsect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm3907 Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 and its sad you jump on a bandwagon that you know nothing about. Kurt has been on here much longer than you. Some newbs just have absolutely no repsect. Well since you wanna go that route It's pretty sad you try and consider yourself one of the senior member's here when clearly you are not. Or when you try to help out a "newb" or anyone for that matter with some stupid info that doesn't even make sense, many members including myself have corrected your retarded post's and you come back with a bullshit ass excuse about you were tired or some stupid shit like that. If you don't know jack shit then don't post its as simple as that. Since your so worried about me "jumping on the bandwagon" how about you go worry about setting up another meet that no one cares about and hop off my sack. I'm all for respect on this site but people need to put in their place. I tend to speak my mind. Too many members have been getting ripped on this site didn't want to see it happen again, as you see posted the story after a couple members questioned it. I followed his threads on pt. If it's a good intake let it be sold, simple as that no need for you to get all on my case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
