Supercharger 'porting' ??
#1

A friend of mine suggested that for maximum cat-love I should have my supercharger 'ported'.
It doesn't seem very expensive - but what exactly is 'porting'? What kind of HP gains should be expected? Would it require that my ECU remap be re-re-mapped?
Anyone done it?

Your garage lists you as having a 09 XF Supercharged (Eaton M112 supercharger). The Eaton M112 is used in the 03-04 Mustang Cobra so there is a huge aftermarket around the Eaton M112. The XF blower does have a different snout but as far as porting goes it should be the same. Here is a good XK thread on the Eaton M112:

You might want to google Eaton M112 porting and contact some shops that offer it. Searching mustang forums for before and after results would be a good idea as well.

I've actually considered getting the supercharger on my XFR ported, but I'm not sure I'm gonna get a lot of value out of it. There are a ton of factors involved in getting better performance out of the car, and I speculate that without a proper tune, the improvements will only be marginal. The results are good in communities where people can actually have their cars tuned, but (speaking specifically of the 5.0) all we have available is a canned flash. I don't believe that a canned flash will be able to take advantage of the changes to the supercharger. Again, this is just conjecture, so don't take it as absolute fact.
