Got a little crazy

Ported blower runners,gutted the intake snout,replaced rotor bearings. Got a little crazy.LOL
Also 82mm throttle body bolts directly on snout, no adapter nonsense. An old Shardul trick of slotting the throttle body bolt holes.


Notice anything missing in there ?

Hehe.. did you take out all of the baffling guiding the air to the rotors? Took me a moment (grin).
I guess that will remove some restriction, but maybe cause some turbulent instead of laminar flow?
Will be an interesting experiment either way,

How was the bearing replacement? I never tried that, and thought the rotor bearings were hard to get off and difficult to source?

Worst case I buy the VRP snout and call it a day. No one else has any type of restriction added to the inlet of their supercharger so I "should" see some boost increase and decrease of heat. Anything in the way of very fast air flow ceates heat
Bearings are easy and bought them a few years back when a company was making them,don't know who has them now, never looked.

There is a company on Australia (can it recall the name at the moment) that stocks all of the device items in the supercharger, including bearings and seals.
