Porting And Such of the 3800 Series II Charger.

Post by The Fieromaster »

I was planning to clean up, port (gasket match) and possibly polish the blower from my newly aquired 3800 SC. On the bottom the outlet is very strange in shape with fins crossing the blower outlet. Are these the ones that are there to quite the blower? Can they be removed?

I am prob going to need to see pics. even if you dont' have any of your own maybe find some somewhere of what you are tlaking about?

Just dont' play with the actual rotors if you are going to clean it up. Port the outlet to the gasket and the intake as well so there are no obstuctions You can smooth the inside of parts of the blower too

I think what keeps the blower quiet is the air silencer box. its sort of like the stock fiero box. Using a CAI is what really allows you to hear the blower whine.

Here are the best pics i could take... Had to brighten up the far away shot so you could see the fins. I heard they had somthing to do with keeping it quiet but who knows?!? I wonder if i could just cut them out, what would happen....? I am gonna try to post this from another server... i dont know any other way to get to show pics on here unless they can be uploaded to here?
