Not worth porting the stock inlet. Purchase one. Gives you better and more airflow. Porting the blower actual increases the cfm's that the blower can move and at about 8% cooler from what I have read. Add the bigger inlet and bigger intake. Then you have more air available for the blower to move. Snout cooler come from Stiegemeier. I think they are the only ones but not 100% sure. It keep your snout bearing cool which helps longevity and helps keep the blower cooler as well. The snout is where most of a SC heat is generated. It might help some in making more power but imo it is more for protecting the blower when spinning at high rpm's.
