Is IT WORTH PORTING THE STOCK MANIFOLD AND THROTTLE BODY???

Need some advise I was looking into maybe getting my stock intake manifold and throttle body ported to finish up all my supporting mods and try to take further advantage of my 6262 setup..How much whp will I gain ?And will my turbo spool faster and make more top end power??In the end I'm just trying to see if I should maybe wait and save my money and just do the magnus v5 or the ams manifold cause it's a bit of a ***** to change..

i gained 20 peak HP from a ported manifold it cost me 60 dollars to do....a magnus will gain more of course but if you want to do it cheaper i would just port the stocker
here is my graph

That's some nice gains I can only imagine if you did the throttle body too..Im curious to see if I pick up the same power with my setup and maybe more adding the body to the mix..If I PICK UP 25 WHP OR MORE from the two I will be happy.

i would think you would pick up some nice gains with the intake and throttle body.....i might try a ported throttle body later when i go to bigger injectors and give the car more boost

My stupid throttle body shaft seal is leaking real bad My friend keeps telling me that I'm losing power from it but I don't think it's much but I did notice my throttle response is not as good as it use to..I wonder How much power you can gain from fixing those seals.

How far was the intake ported? Wondering if it's worth it as well on a stock turbo setup...for 20hp seems like it would be...anyone else want to share their results?

i did alot of porting on mine not just the runners i also ported alot in the plentum... this was also my first attempt at porting so i am sure someone that has done more port work could get more out of it

as my milspec T/B was leaking well i should say sharkbites old t/b i ordered some new milspec seals 18.12 shipped i mean loosing 3-5psi is pretty major my dude lol. ordered the seals to fix the leak easy mod you can do. I would say port both hands down great gains to be made from those two peaces and if your already in the process of modding back there then its only makes sense but again if your not trying to gain every horsepower possible i can see you not spending 550 dollars on both these mods
