How do you regulate how fast the pressure is sent back into the blower hosuing? Size

I do agree however, making some of the edges smoother and rounding corners will help.
So when I port my blower should I leave the slots alone and only open the V part?

You could TIG some plates onto the bottom side, it wouldn't interfere with the rotors, but it will leave a little gap where the holes once were.

I wouldnt try it... to weld aluminum you'd have to put so much heat into it, you most certainly would distort the highly toleranced bores. Especially welding in that area.

I'd focus my efforts on the inlet side.

I have a friend that works at Manacharger and owns there dyno. I have another blower housing coming and I will see how much you pick up with just the inlet ported. And then do the out let and see the diff between the two.

Make sure to use the same housing and rotors. They vary from blower to blower.

Sweet... Unless I buy my parents Passat for a back up car... I might just buy one of Intense's already ported blowers... that or buy a cheap body off-line.

I just talked to my friend and he is getting me a complete blower not just the housing. But I will do the testing with the stock one thats coming.

How much does Stegimeier and Intense charge for porting the supercharger? And does polishing the inside of the supercharger help as well?
