That is to the wheels sir !

Any BF specials regarding this service?

Is that because the porting is all before the lobes? If you ported the heads, for example, boost would go DOWN. But I guess if you're porting the intake tract, more air makes it in, hence more boost.

Yes! 10% off EVERYTHING on our website including 103mm throttles, griptec pulleys, and of course, of CNC Supercharger porting Service.

Exactly, our CNC programs optimize everything on the inlet side of the supercharger to get as much as in as possible, resulting in more boost, which in turn leads to the typical 45-50whp gain when combined with a 103mm throttle.

what are you guys running in the DMS trunk tank... meth or e85 or ???

very impressive

While I'd be naturally dubious, I once took a SECOND off a blown C4 in the quarter by improving a bad intake path. Intake losses on the intake side (or recovered gains) are multiplied by the supercharger.

Greg@KongPerformance

Absolutely insane results with a before and after at JMS Racing in Texas recently. The only changes between the two runs were the addition of the Kong CNC Snout and Supercharger porting along with a nick williams 103mm throttle. This is on a heads Cam LT4 setup.

If you are interested in getting your LT4 supercharger ported, head over to our site to get the ball rolling. We even offer custom formed foam shipping containers to send out in advance so you don't have to deal with the hassle of packing the supercharger yourself!

Do you know what the difference in air intake temps are between the stock blower and your ported one?

Greg@KongPerformance

The blower porting doesn't have a noticeable effect on intake air temps, so they were about the same.

Very interesting! Any info on the 1st two runs?

2016 Z06 here. Do I have to run a different throttle body if I get your supercharger snout porting?

Greg@KongPerformance

You do not have to, but we recommend a 103 for best results if budget allows for it.

I know I’m bringing the thread back from the dead. Porting with no tune has become more relevant now with the emission laws as they are in CA. No tune allowed here. Has there been any further testing on what else can be done in addition to the porting? Does anyone know what tb or intakes work well in combination without a tune and not throw codes? I do run an x pipe catless even though I’m in CA and that would stay (don’t think they will catch me on that). Anyway, looking to do as much as I can and still pass smog. Idk if the NW TB requires a tune? I’m guessing yes and if so not much sense in porting the snout right? Might as well only order the porting for the supercharger then? Any additional info for us CA guys would be appreciated. I have also been considering the catless down pipes and swap back at smog time but idk if I could do that and a porting? Any one do try that on a stock tune?

my 1.7 blower is currently at kong performance for a full rebuild and max xport. I developed a loud squeal in the blower and both my tuner and greg confirmed that I can run a xport blower on my stock 17 with no tune. greg additionally told me I could also run a 103 t/b with no tune as long as I didnt do wot pulls. I elected to stay on the stock t/b for now. im also keeping the stock upper pulley as I have a ati lower balancer and dsx pulley to install down the road. hope this helps

This may aggravate some when I say this. But if you keep the stock intake and stock manifolds on the car, the ECU can handle a ported blower and even a 2.38 upper. As an FYI, the X port blower loves to be over spun. If will feel a little sluggish down low on the stock pulley but it will hit much harder up top.

Looking at the curves in post #1, it doesn't look like the ported s/c is giving up anything anywhere. The increases in area under the curve for torque and horsepower is pretty impressive. I suspect the car was somewhat quicker after the port job, and really felt good from 4k up.

Thanks for bringing this thread back. I'd posted this very question in the performance/supercharged, etc., forum a week ago with no responses and this gave what I needed.

As I understand the information in post #39, I should be good on the stock tune (2016) with no other changes made to the car.
