Hey I think they wanted to keep that stuff off the internet for a little while so they can get back some of their R&D money

Just the outlet side. I had permission to post inlet side pictures. The oulet side is not what you would expect...I'll leave it at that for now...

"We also do not fill the holes on the outlet, there are several reasons why that should be avoided. "

From a post on another board they do not plug those holes; they believe it is bad to do so.

Excuse my ignorance if I missed it, but I never saw any of your before and after numbers if you posted them.
Do you have dyno #’s or track times to see if there was and improvement?
Did you measure secondary air temps?
Also what mods do you have?

Ignorance is on my part. I neglected to do some basic things, like before and after dyno Hell I can't even back it up with track times.

Seriously I pulled the blower off and attacked it. Got some advice from Jim@JDM and Dale then attacked it again.

The info I have:
Oct of 02' I ran 12.85@107(?) with a chip, LT's, 2lb lower, stock tires at Englistown.

Ported the blower shortly after that.

March/April @ Cecil I ran the time in my sig with the only difference being the ported blower. I gotta look up to compare my 60' times though, but my memory wants to say 2.0 @E-town and 1.99@Cecil.
