They have a few great local P&P people they know, so we will first see what they can offer. I am sure you can understand. > > Also I read a lot about the AEB vs AWP ported head theory. Allot more people are porting the AWP stuff to get port speeds up and get the same CC flow an AEB does and then some. Also I already have a AWP head, and an extra AWP manifold I planned on cutting the runners off and making a sheet metal intake and larger throttle body for. Because we already have the parts, we will first entertain the ported AWP idea, then if it doesn’t cut it or isn’t feasible, just swap to AEB and go from there. > > what you guys heard about going AWP ported over AEB? if i still had my AEB head id show you the physical differences. not just in overal port size, but the throat leading into the bowls have LESS material in the casting on the Small port head (awd/ww/wp) which limits you to have much porting of the actually runner you can do. sure you can deburr and gasket match the port opening, but bowl work is very limited on a small port casting. theres a reason why people run AEB castings. stock AEB vs “ported small port” shows about the same flow. alot of the big power 1.8t guys use stock casting AEBs with upgraded valvetrain(ferrea!!! dont go supertech) and a set of CAT cams. more recently the 3658s have proven to be the best match for larger frame turbos while not killing spool but making big top end gains. just make sure the cams get degree’d correctly, the CATs dont have any markings on the gears so if you can do it on a stand where its easy to work, and not in the car. rent the torque plate from IE when you end up doing the cylinder work. i already talked with Hunts about it when i was going to rebuild my engine. he has the old vw stuff, but nothing for the newer watercooled engines.0 > [@FREE: Tires!!! and 240sx Spare Wheel](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/free-tires-and-240sx-spare-wheel/33505/6): > > Without welding material back in, you can port an AWP to be a few CC’s bigger intake and exhaust than a stock AEB. > > I have a lead on a build (pag parts) AEB, cams valves & springs. and I already picked up an AEB intake for the runners for $50. If the deal goes through on the head, ill call it a day there. if not, I will burn up the AEB intake and make a manifold to sell/practice on and keep looking into the AWP route. Or find a AEB core for a few hunge and go that route. Doors are open to all posibilities. i know that head. top notch parts went into it. it almost ended up on my car :thumb --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/albany-speed-shop-krazy-kid-kustoms-2004-jetta-track-car/254265)._
