Sometimes things are kept behind the scenes and I'm going to show a few things and what they did for performance. Which was basically not much or some lost unfortunately. One project never took off because it was discussed and we all thought there was no advantage to it. Other than that typically if I have an idea it gets tested.:bash: Remember I don't do this full time.
Pictures of my own personal blower that came off my car. I was trying the plates on the bottom at an attempt to help performance but no gains showed up from this.
More plates means more testing...
Little weld on the outside to make the rotor lead-ins larger.;-)
I will say that blower is still the horsepower king compared to my Race Ports. Can't sell that port though because it takes way to long to do.
How about a custom cut intercooler mod? No testing on this though it was something that's easy for me to do for my own car.:beer:
EGR Delete? Showed absolutely nothing on the dyno.
Ported lower intake which only showed 1lb of boost drop and no gains at all compared to a stocker.
Back to blower projects. I had a case that was given to me so I figured let's see if we can make an inlet to keep up with this huge outlet. No gains again and it peaked sooner in the rpm range and fell off faster.
Little bit of roof work here to make the inlet larger on the inside.
Strategically placed welds underneath to make the lead-ins a lot larger.
Huge inlet opening and also a welded up Dragon matched to it.
Inlet compared to a regular Race Port.
One of my favorite testing days was testing some throttle bodies. No need for pictures here just a link with the results. Proved some "industry" standards wrong on this one and also figured out what the max hp/tq rating is for a ported stock throttle body and plenum combo.

One of my favorite pictures still and this is the one where we manually wrote the CNC Machining Center program to cut the 03/04 Cobra inlets. Took us about 12 hours to do it. Each move is .100" and .050" down I think from memory. For a while people thought the ones we did by hand put out more power even though that's what we used to write the program.
CNC fixture that holds them to cut the inlet and the outlet.
How about a Dragon plenum with no inside turn? Straight shot all the way through.:rockon: This was used for another "huge inlet" blower with a standard outlet first. Then after some testing we went back and made the outlet just a hair larger for more testing. This blower still showed no gains but it was done with my Auto in the car so anything below 3,400 rpm's or so was not known. I'd say tip-in throttle response should be instant though.
Last here's another one that we thought about. Jake, myself, my Tuner Blankenship Tuning which has done all dyno testing on my car and almost all of these tests you see here. Along with some other "key" friends we didn't think it was worth pursuing because when you inject Nitrous into our motors that typically doesn't touch IAT2's or Downstream temperatures at all. Jake and myself have logged passes at the Dragstrip and confirmed this. So if cold air or hot air hits your intercooler your intercooler will win and either heat the air up or cool it down. That happened and was discussed during the thinking of this and was the last straw to stop a prototype.
Eaton Snout Idea?
I have a few more things to show but I need to get some pictures first. Some modified rotors and then that other huge inlet ported case with the smaller outlets. That sucker is impressive but it just didn't do to much.
Anyways I still think nobody does the amount of testing on ported Eaton's like we do here and with over 130 full dyno pulls on my car I have proof to back up any testing that we've ever done. Most of that testing is done same day, same dyno, back to back with the car staying strapped down the entire time, without any ICE ever being added to help numbers. Also coolant temps are typically 168*'s when we start a pull which puts them at real world for the results.
Oops how about some E-85 testing as well.

Also please remember we're more than just ports. We're continually growing and carrying more parts with free shipping. If we don't think it's worth carrying or we woudn't put it on our own cars then we won't sell it.:beer: We're proud of every product we sell.
I do not own this dyno but my Tuner does cut me a good deal.:lol1::rockon: Thanks to Lee @ Blankenship Tuning for my custom 30 different tunes rofl. That's just a guess but is probably close or actually it's probably more than that. Upper only tunes, upper/lower 2.9/4lb tunes, 2.3 Whipple 19lb tune, 2.3 Whipple 22lb tune, back to Eaton 2.9/6lb tune, E-85 tunes, Eaton/Nitrous tunes. All of those had street tunes and race tunes. Plus the tunes that had to be done or at least adjusted for all tests.
Now I'm in the middle of a 5.0 Boss block build that's being done by Mike @ L&M Engines with some custom ground cams from him. Ported Eaton will go back on first with the NANO nitrous. After that something small but not an Eaton. I'm ready for my car to be done.:thumbsup:
Last my favorite pictures so far. This is my car with a race weight of 3,750lbs, ported Eaton off the shelf!, ported Dragon, 2.9/6lb combo, and NANO Nitrous with a small .048" jet. Plus headers, exhaust, yada, yada.
The launch of that pass and I still know in my heart those front tires were 8 to 10 inches off the ground. Damn camera man lol.:bash: Nobody was there with me and I'm lucky enough to even have this though.
