Andrew still hasn't seen the results of the ZM work.

That SC looks straight out awesome! Does the polish affect the heat transfer at all (whether good or bad)?

The polishing has a negative effect on performance. It will slightly reduce the supercharger'* ability to dissipate heat. To what extent, we don't really know.

Alot of people are also under the impression that a GenV produces more power than a Gen3 in it'* own right. That isn't the case. By itself, the GenV has little or no advantage over the Gen3. There'* alot more to it than that.
