LNF This

Who cares about the new SS/TC when you can have a blower that looks like this BTW I'm just joking, I am actually really interested about how the LNF turns out. But anyways I just had my blower fixed and ported/painted by Steigemeiers. And overall I am really impressed with how it turned out performance and looks wise, it is a thing of beauty. The GM stage tune that is on the car runs ridiculously rich, and this port has helped lean it out a bit. I haven't ran it wide open yet, but just going around town. Feeling the throttle response is ten times better. But anyways here are some pics, let me know if you like it or not.

It was Stiegemeier in St. Charles MO who did the Port and Paint. But as far as cost it was on sale so the prices might change, but it was 345 for the port, 75 for paint, and 15 to strip the pulley down to aluminum.... So a total of 435 for everything. They did an awesome job, and it only took them like 2.5 hours to do it all.

porting is smoothing out and opening the ports of the supercharger for increases airflow.

looks sick as hell man, I really want to do this myself. Keep us updated on your performance increase from it. Like drag strip trap speeds or dyno #'s.

I've seen a few pieces done by Steg and they are amazing. Unless you REALLLLY know what you're doing with porting you should definately leave it to the professionals, it's pretty easy to hurt your blower and its efficiency if it's not done right.

On a side note I loooove the black look. I love it so much I did mine the exact same way a couple months ago

Thanks for all of the compliments guys, I really like how it turned out, and if you guys couldn't tell. I would highly recommend Stiegemeier to anyone who is looking for a professional port and not some amature dremel job.

Yeah they polish stuff too, but it makes the turn around time take alot longer, here is a link with some of their polish work http://www.stiegemeier.com/show_polish.html

That is one of the nicest mods around. Did you notice any increase in HP and driveability?
