Headers for sky? Port and polished? Anyone?

I haven't heard much talk about these options. I don't know how beneficial these mods would be. Each car is a different animal and I won't pretend to know if this would increase performance. I figured it was something worth examining though.

Good point. I have not heard anyone mention gains due to porting or valve work. Could be that the factory got it right???
Also haven't seen much about different cams being available. It seems like there would be some nice gains available. Is anyone working on these?

Of course we would! Please post some dyno numbers as well. I am into performance over looks. I'm sure your headers are beautiful but what about some numbers? What cost are we talking about as well?

I didn't do my head yet, but I did an extensive port and polish on the exhaust turbo manifold. It needed it, it was pretty bad. I have not dynoed yet, but I am guessing 270-300 at the rear wheel. I'm pretty happy with the speed.
