You have asked the most debated question in the airflow world. There is a lot of folklore, misunderstanding, and flat out wrong ideas floating around. Here is what we have learned in the "big" engine world, and how it scales.
To sum it up, spend your time on getting rid of sharp edges, radius all your inlets, and in general smooth out the airflow path with disturbing its direction ( especially in the bybass region ). Keep everything as smooth as possible but dont waste your time polishing anything, fine scotchbrite finish is about right. Anybody else have any imput?
