Please keep in mind that dyno's, flow benches, and wet flow flow are only a tool. Talk to any of the Pro's and they will tell you that any one of those tools can and will lead you down the wrong path. If the data is analyzed and interpreted correctly meaning from real world analysis these tools can help you. I can remember not so long ago everyone thought that 320 fps for intake port speed was gospel. Now we are finding out that it's application specific and not one size fits all. I'm not saying slower is better or faster is better. Just saying it all depends on the combo and application. Texturing in my opinion is a great tool for certain area's of the intake track. Texturing is also good for other area's like race car body's, wings, golf balls, etc. Texturing can also hurt in some area's if you need the air to cling to the surface. Engine science is advancing rapidly right now because of the tools available to us now as amateur racers. Not so long ago most bracket racers didn't even care what their heads flowed or if they had the correct header for their application. Now these same guy's are starting to realize the importance of the complete combo from carb to tail pipe. We are in an advanced stage of technology in everything we do in life right now. Some of it is advancing so fast that we cannot even learn today what we need to know before it changes tomorrow. I still like the saying: Lead , Follow, or Get the Heck out of the way !!! PG version LOL.
