No it's designed for best output from the factory.

It's already designed for a LS4 throttle body. There is NO NEED to port it.

Alright thanks alot guys for the answers. So it would be useless to port the stock m62 blower, if I decide to upgrade in the future to a TVS then.

Very little benefit in porting the M62 as well.

Or the stickied FAQ. But, that's too hard to find...

Port and plug the m62 or just get a tvs and don't mess with it.

in the meantime while you're saving your lunch money.

Its something you can do in a day, one day while you're bored...break out the dremel or high speed drill and port away.

Put it this way...the TVS stock pulley (3.15) makes ~20psi. A 2.7 makes around 24psi. Plus the unit already outflows the M62 by over 100 CFMs.

No one to date or documented has ported an 1320lsj harrop Tvs supercharger that I know of, I have thought about polishing the inlet side for it does have a course texture to it, gains would be very very minamul if any so its not reall worth it, eaton as stated that the Tvs is best as is from the factory. It's best left alone

Correction HARROP has stated it is at peak efficiency and porting will decrease it's potential. Again, it is a dumb idea to do. Please read the FAQ. Let me search it for you....

smooth does not always flow more, air has a tendency to "stick" when its really smooth

Fixed. Eaton designed the rotors. HARROP designed the blower housing

porting the m62 has a few gains, very little is an understatement.
