Prove your "facts"...

Awfully defensive arent we tough guy?

It sure would be funny if your blower was already ported before you bought it. Explaining some of your higher than normal power numbers. Its not like you would know anyway if the guys at AMP didnt tell you...

Only on Camaro 5 would a guy give you a compliment you didnt earn and you respond with a rude smart ass comment.

As I've said before, the gains are there for the blower snout. If you are of the opinion that it is...based on what you've read, you are entitled to that opinion.

i'd actually like to see you do an A-B comparison of a ported & non-ported lower manifold on your car... just to see what, if anything (power, boost level, IATs, etc), changes.

Hopefully it can get back on track. I would like to see other builds that include the blower being ported.

Good deal man. I just had my factory TB ported so I am looking forward to seeing what the 102 set-up can do. Who is doing your port work? Are you getting your heads ported as well?

Wow you are making good power with ported stock throttle body. I am doing the port work myself over the winter taking my time trying to remove all the metal I can in all the important places I will take a lot of pix and post. No leaving the heads stock for now if I do them what am I going to do next year LMAO

I always like to see a DIY on something like this! I'm sure this porting is no easy task.. Good luck!! Please do post results whenever you get it done

Thanks for all the Informational comments so far guys, I appreciate it.

Hope a lot more people chime in.... With the 100s of "catch can" threads out there with tons of posts and information, thought this thread would gain more comments/experiences from us performance guys

Thank you, now I need to run good ETs in 2016. I didn't make it to the track this year due to business, but next year I am going to make the time. As far as you porting your blower, keep us posted on your progress. Have you done port work before?
