I went the same route almost, cold air/exhaust.. then got the DHP PCM, and felt a biggg difference
well feeling a difference is different than actually knowing you got a difference, personally i think the throttlebody is pointless if the plenum is not matched up. milzy charges 300 for the upper and lower ported and polished but if you send in your upper manifold he can just port the plenum for like 100 bux and thatll most likely cover shipping as well. like i said earlier the stock manifolds already flow enough air through them so porting the entire manifold is quite pointless unless you are going boost or some sort of N/A build.

obviously yea.. 'knowing' is better than saying, hey yea it picks up more...

porting the plenum, while is a good idea, you're only matching the size of the bigger tb... the gains wont really make that big of a difference, sorta the same as just putting the bigger TB on the UIM...

as for porting the entire UIM/LIM, you'd def feel and prove the difference on a dyno...

any way you look at it, allowing the engine to 'breathe' more openly will improve the outcome, small or large
