mods are in sig... From Steggy's site it claims 1450 cfm for a stage IV port. I know my 4 x 6 filter is not capable of such flow. So my question is with a 2.93 pulley/ported blower am I leaving power on the table(due to insufficient airflow from a small filter)? Anyone know how much air a 2.93 is moving. My guess is that im am not maximizing my combinations potential... thoughts?

In order to flow 1450cfm from a Eaton M120 (120ci/rev) roots supercharger you would have to spin it at 20,880RPM assuming it had 100% volumetric efficiency. Is that really possible?
1rev/120ci x 1,728ci/1cf x 1450cf/min = 20,880rev/min
A Whipple 140AX doesn't even low 1450 CFM at its max rated speed of 18,000 RPM.
You will get max airflow from your setup by going to a straight shot intake like a JLT RAI with the largest possible filter that will fit.

I'm with ALA G8R!! Not possible.
(Displacement of the stock Eaton M112 is actually 112 cid though. But that would just mean an even higher rpm than he gave you. Ditto for a VE less than 100%, which isn't really possible either as he mentions.)
