The only pulley I have is a 4# lower, and with the Stegmier port I'm seeing 14.5#s . unfortunatly I only had the factory gauge before the port so I don't know the actual #s before the port
just my .02, it's worth it for the extra power, and the fact it does'nt build as much heat as a non ported makes it great for more consistant runs at the track.

the ported eaton adds another "hole" on the bottom of the supercharger, this allows more of the I/C to be utilized.
The power gain (for me at least) was pretty much even throughout the RPM range. Generally the faster my engine RPM, the more the boost goes up. if that helps.

SOme people have seen a drop in HP but an increase in TRQ. I saw an increase on both.
