You should notice a significant differance. Although no one has any dyno proof of how much one gains from porting their Manifolds and doing the TB Mod.

It would be suggestable to check the sticky on top to see not only how It's done but peoples REGARDS on It.

I'm porting the S4 intake as we speak. There really isn't much to port.

You've obviously didn't read It well enough. There was atleast 3 dudes with s4 Intakes that were Impressed with the gains achieved after porting their Manifolds.

Ironically enough, I will be disassembling my Intake tomorrow to give It a nice porting. I'm doing this also b'c I know 2 people personally that are Infavour of this free mod.

Yeah it's a free mod, but has anyone payed any money to have theirs done by using the Extrude Hone process? I hear it's supposed to work wonders. How would the rotary respond to a very well ported intake manifold.. any negatives?
