[7/03/06] "First, support where support is due. [Cory] was prompt with response to PM's, emails, shipping, everything. First rate. Upon opening the box, I thought there wasn't much done, UNTIL I compared the ported intake to my stock intake. Cory did a lot of work - the ports were all wider, and importantly, consistent. I measured stock ports at approx. 7/8" and ported were 1-1/8. He took more off one side than the other, so it looks like he's done his homework doing this. A fair amount of work was done behind the throttle body too, it's amazing how much casting flash was in there." - Posted on Corvetteforum.com by  Joe_G,  Corvetteforum.com member.  
[7/24/06] "Last saturday went to [Cory's] home in Bremerton to swap my stock LS2 intake for one of his ported units. ... The work went well, and we had a lot of fun talking vettes and hotrods. Isn't it funny in hotrodding when relatively small things make a difference? I've owned my 05 Z51 6 speed coupe for a year and a half. One of the first things I noticed with this car was a tendency to run rough and level off at WOT above about 5500 rpm (in stock trim). At first I thought that there was an engine/flywheel balance problem, or possibly a tuning issue. However, I drove a friends 05' and it was the same as mine. Subsequently my car was modified (LG pros, high flow cats and x pipe, a 120/124 114 LSA comp cam from A&A, cleaned up stock heads w/ LS 6 valves, nice valve job, minor bowl work, milled 0.010, comp dual springs & ti retainers, Halltech ECM tune and CIA). Well the mod's took care of the falling off at higher RPM's, but some roughness up top remained. I don't know if any of the forum members have noticed this tendency. In my 40 some years experience with well built small block chevs, I've always had smooth pulling engines. Cory's manifold seems to have cured most of the rough running at WOT up top. Hard to feel 7 to 15 hp (improvement?) at this horsepower level, but the motor seems to pull well. Will dyno in the coming weeks. Baseline dyno prior to mod intake was 398 RWHP and 375 TQ. Thanks Cory your a good man and a friend." - Posted on Corvetteforum.com by Healykid, Corvetteforum.com member.
[6/14/06] "My buddy finally had his dyno fixed, I rushed up to test the mods. Cam only..418.29RWHP 385.26 Torque I swapped on a ported intake in about 14 minutes, and came up with 425.83RWHP and 392.63 Torque That is 43 RWHP from the cam and an additional 7.5 RWHP and 7.5 Torque from the porting. Those are Peak Numbers on the Porting, don't be fooled, it picked up 3-13 HP/Torque with an average of about 10 throughout the entire curve That's good money spent, worth at least a tenth or two on the track." - Posted on Corvetteforum.com by CYA-Vett, Corvetteforum.com member.


[9/25/06]"Even after Cory installed the ported intake I noticed the car was different. It felt smoother and more responsive. The throttle body from Brian [TyDun Inductions] is a very simple swap. I had no idea I would be able to click off that ET/MPH [12.47 @111]consistently with the mentioned modifications [SW Headers and catback, LPE CAI, Predator Hand-held tuner, Ported intake manifold and throttlebody]. The cool thing about these parts is that they look stock. A service manager from a local Pontiac dealer asked how the hell the car went so fast? I just said the headers, LPE intake deal, and sticky tires.If you want to gain some easy power without killing the bank account, hit up CHarris (Cory) and MyGoatBites [TyDun Inductions] to help you out. Thanks again guys."

[3/15/07] "Well I would just like to thank you again for porting my TB and Intake, I got the car dyno tuned today and got some results. Thought I would share them with you. I'm very impressed with my results and am glad I decided to do the porting (as some say its not worth the money). Thanks again for the quick responses, your customer service/work is top notch! - J. Lisinski 390.75 RWHP 392.44 RWTQ. 

[3/26/07] "I just got the car dynoed again and put down 375hp and 372 tq stock. I put down 351hp and 349tq only mods are vararam with TB spacer, cory harris ported intake manifold, i ported and polished my own TB, and I straight piped the cats. and I havn't tuned it yet but i think a 25hp increase isn't to bad for only spending $600. Yes I still have stock exhaust manifolds and mufflers."  - YellowC6Ohio, corvetteforum.com member 

[4/6/07] "I put the combo on my 2007 C6, it was the best money I have spent to date. The car really woke up with the ported intake, and the TB improved the throttle response quite a bit. Oh yea, highway MPG came up on my car (its a daily driver too)."

[5/04/07] "I had my bone stock 05 MN6 with 5600 miles Dyno'd for the first time two weeks ago. I wasn't too surprised by the numbers: 339 RWHP / 336 RWTQ. I then installed a Ported TB and Intake from Cory Harris [LS2PW] (which was really nice by the way), and a Callaway Honker. Jerry Onks in Smyrna,TN then installed Melrose headers with a catted X-pipe mated to my stock exhaust, The car dyno'd 370 RWHP and 365 TWTQ. Jerry then computer tuned the car with an HP tuner. Results: 384 RWHP/370 RWTQ. I'm pretty happy!" -   herky737, on corvetteforum.com

[5/21/07] "I had my car dyno tuned today. I gained 13.7 RWHP and 10.1 RWTQ with the addition of your ported TB and Intake. In addition, I have noticed that the throttle response has improved greatly throughout the RPM band and from 4500k to redline it has definitely smoothed out. Thank you for the nice job and great results." - Chris

[1/11/08] "The out of the box experience from LS2Portworks sets the bar very high for aftermarket tuners. The packaging was very robust to protect the intake and the quality of the porting work was fantastic. I installed the intake in about 30-40 minutes at Colvin Automotive in Austin, TX. We did a baseline dyno run to see the before and after results. After cooling the car down, the baseline results were 402.09 hp and 375.95 ft/tq. The first results came in at 413.64 hp and 385.93 ft/tq, a 11.55 rwhp and 9.98 rwtq improvement! I was truly amazed. We ran a second pull without shutting the car down, and it still netted 412 hp and 385 ft/tq without any cool down period. Thanks to Cory and his staff for a great customer experience and dyno proven results!!!" - Tim
