Depending on your combo, porting the intake manifold may not be worth the effort. The stock one flows very well as-cast.

IMO, you can port it for a larger throttle body, but actually porting the intake won't net a whole lot. I have a much larger cam/heads combo than you do, and AI recommended against having it ported because of the minimal gains.
I should add that I wanted it ported anyway.  In hindsight, I should have saved the $400.

Either way, even fully ported, on stock cubes, you prob won't see much of a gain..
