Supercharger Porting..
To the ones that have done this- How much of an overall difference does it make? is a retune necessary? should i not do it? Im having the blower pulled so why not do it

i had mine done. my SC was starting to make noise so i sent it to be rebuilt and ported. hard to tell what the overall benefit was becuase of the amount of mods i had done at one time however i can say that it increased the efficiency of my blower. i run a 190 pulley yet i am only realizing approx 14 psi. when i ported the SC i also changed the bearings with upgraded bearings and a specialized grease. a word of caution - i was advised that there is such a thing as over-porting yielding a loss in power. i dont know much about this stuff but this is what i was told by the guy who did my blower.
FYI - my SC rebuild was done by PSE. they can be found at PSE.us the owners name is Ed and he was very helpful and seemed to have quite a bit of knowledge about our particular SC. i would suggest u give him a call...
