Default Ported& polished on a Turbo car = Waste of money/time

The gains are minimal....
Spend your $$$'s on a big intercooler

do have a front mount intercooler with a KO4, Giac software, tap cat and borla exhaust...just wondering if the $375 for the ported exhaust manifold(wich i already have) would give me another 5-10hp...but who the hell know unless you put it on a dyno..how much hp would you think the above setup would make?
