    Pictures would be great--I am a noob with these cars. I have always been into turbo buicks before this. Just got it a few weeks ago and trying to get it in top shape.

    I don't really know what is the inlet or the outlet, so if you have pics showing this and where to carve that would be really helpful. What are the shorter bolts I would need? Do I need to get the oil at the dealer--can't get it at autozone or somewhere? I don't need to tune or cause tuning problems if I only do the supercharger without the throttle body?

    Thanks again.

    I have seen some posts on porting and how to enlarge the triangle and remove the humps, but what are the bolts you are talking about? I also don't know which is the inlet or the outlet (I don't have it off yet and have never had a blower before). An hour or so would be great. I am not tearing into it until Friday. I will be doing the LIM and figured I might as well do this while in there.

    the humps at the bottom of the traingle are there cause two bolts go through them to hold the snout and rotor plate...when u remove the humps the bolts will still stick out there the humps use to be so you will cut down the effectiveness of the port if the bolts arent shorter

    intake of lim...ported on right this time...remove the extra metal...get a grinder for this as its a ton of metal. if you do this you will also need to cut your gaskets to match. some people recommend smoothing out the bottoms on these pics but i honestly see little benefit but i may be wrong

    I have seen some posts that you shouldn't port the intake manifold unless you are intercooled. Is that the case or is that fine on an unmodded car too? Will I also need a gasket if I pull the snout, or does it just go back together? On the inlet, do you just hog it out and smooth it over so the opening is as big as the inside? I am also not really seeing the groove.

    You coating was coming off anyways, METH WILL NOT HURT ROTORS THAT WHERE COATED RIGHT, the coating was coming off my stock ones before I even had meth, so I guess air eats the coating too.
