Wasp Blowers

So how's everybodies wasp blowers panning out? Any dyno's with them? Im tossing around the ported eaton route and im not sure if im going to go through with it or not, seems to have mixed reviews. Im thinking this fall things will change with that though. So if ya gotta wasp, chime in, let me know how its goin. Or even wes, shoot some details, etc. My only main issue w/ the eaton port, is i just wont be satisfied if i lose torque...hope thats not the ongoing trend. Anyhow, thanks

Rob have you got a low 11 time slip yet with your new combo. Might have missed it if you already posted your new best

just thought I'd ask--what is a "wasp" blower? another porting company(I guess?)? if so, what kinds of gains are seen compared to the standard apten?

Wes is one of our fellow L owners that does porting on the side. I contacted him by email and made arrangements via email. He does really good work and I paid about half what an Apten port costs. Mine may not work as well as an Apten, but I've never seen the two compared. I do know it works.

Wasp

No complaints......picked up over 20 hp , but lost a little bit of torque. Not surprised but has happened on many trucks. I'm only running a 4lb lower. Ported blowers like to be spun, no doubt about it.

Eluzion had his done the same time. Picked up over 20 hp, went from a 4 to a 6lb lower and picked up about 20 ft lbs. What ever that rpm difference is made all the difference in the world. I'm just not brave enough to go to a 6 yet.

My mph is up about 2mph and i picked up over a tenth running in the heat. We'll see in the fall.
