CEF11E Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Thats Bullshit mate.... you can't use sand to port and polish your motor.. you can actually damage your engine doing this. ANY ONE READING THIS DO NOT TRY IT AS IT WILL DAMAGE YOUR ENGINE!!!!.... if your mate knew what he was talking about he would know you need to use a type of fortified wine commonly known as "PORT' for a propper job, you mix it 50/50 with petrol when you fill up. It's expensive but its how the pro's do it... Not reccomended on the street as it adds lost of those octaine's and increases how much pounds you are running. My mate runs 10s in his VL with stock turbo and 93pounds boost and 8" exhaust Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/110974-sand-blasting-port-and-polish/page/2/#findComment-2051931 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bliksem Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 The HKS sand is good, but my tuner recommends the Tomei sand which has an additive that breaks down in the combustion chamber and ceramic coats the pistons. It still ports and polishes the head as well which makes it better value at only $300 for 25kg - much cheaper than a rebuild with forgies. I've also heard on the rumour mill that adding icing sugar (not regular sugar) to a tank of fuel can increase injector flow as the tiny granuals pass through the injectors and have an abrasive effect. Seems feasable and I was told it you only need a pound of sugar to increase to 550cc of flow. Not only this the sugar apparently increases octane just like the CSR ethanol fuel additive. Can someone support this? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/110974-sand-blasting-port-and-polish/page/2/#findComment-2499507 Share on other sites More sharing options...

stolen_s15 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Ha ha ha awesome thread!! Just a quick tip for anyone wanting a great CAI. Simply remove that annoying little spring lookin thing from your AFM (cant do anything important) and jam it full of snow. Chills the air and will even give everything a nice clean to boot!

Kozeyekan Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Norkam Beach Sand. Seriously guys, That's just old school. At BBU engineering solutions, we look for the finest alternative to port an polishing. First, we drink the port. We find this makes the job much better, then we get you, the car owner to drink a lot more port, so you'll always be happy when we give your car back to you (or one of my old ones if your car looks better than mine) First, we select only the most rounded grains of sand. We have teams of specially trained mongooses (mongeese?) who are bred for their ability to recognise small round objects. We start them with marbles and work them down to grains the thickness of a human hair. Those that get it wrong starve, thus ensuring quality control for you, the customer. We also add almodns crushed into a fine powder by the feet of mediteranian virgins to the mix, for than sweet almond oil scent that most engines are missing, but at BBU, it's this attention to detail that dets us far apart from other workshops. Now, we have heard that some port and polishers out there do dodgy back yard jobs, putting the sand in through the air filter, or the oil cap. WRONG! think about it, all that sand going out the exhaust? It's only meant for gas! Unlike these shonky backyard operators, BBU puts the sand INTO the exhaust pipe! Yes, this revolutionary technique means that you can clean every nook and cranny of the engine! Here's how: We load up a huge funnel and fill it with our mongoose selected sand. Occasionally bits of mongoose poo get into there, but that's OK, as it's organic material, and as we all know, organic material under heat and pressure makes oil, and your engine works on heat and pressure, so not only will the mongoose sand polish the engine, but the mongoose poo will grease and oil it up too! Afte the funnel is attached, we start the car. Now, simple logic states that putting it in first and revving the engine will make the air go through the engine and out the exhaust. Since we want the reverse, we obviously put it in reverse. This is where it can go wrong. Last month a mongoose got away and took off the handbreak, while our skilled technician was revving the engine and making BOV noises (an important part of the process) as a result, we ran over several skilled sand feeder executives, and a lemur that happened to be near by. Now we chock the wheels with bull elephant seals, avoiding further injury. After this process, the sand is extruded from many points in the engine bay, such as the turbo, the oil cap, the dip stick, and the pod. We suggest that paople keep this sand and take it with them, otherwise our mongooses have been known to think that people do not appreciate their expertise, and they lapse into depression and start heavy drinking of llama urine (A specialty drink of choice four our exec mongeese) and watch porn on discovery channel. After all this, we give you more port and send you on your merry way. You may have noticed our intense commitment to a 'green' workshop, we use animals and starving childeren where possible to avoid pollutants and excessive costs (such as 'wages') We do this to pass the savings on to you, and any suggestion that some of the animals may or may not have been fired from 'meerkat manor' for sleeping with the production assistant are fallacious and distortions of the highest order. After the procedure, we guarantee that you'll notice a dramatic difference in the way your car handles. So much so, that none of our customers vehicles have subsequently been involved in accidents on the road! So please drop into our workshop at 444 shi-ite drive. we're next to the RSPCA. there are no markings on the door, so just knock 3 times, ring the bell and say loudly "I once met a man from nantucket, who'se head was shaped like a bucket.!" and we'll let you in. We have all this security to protect our patented port and polish process form people who have been trying to steal it. Anyway, we expect to see you soon. -BBU engineering.
