HP increase by porting LSA heads?

Looking for some feedback on how much HP increase would typically be gained by porting LSA heads.

I have all the usual mods....cai, cam, headers, ported blower/snout/throttle body, 22% lower pulley, injectors, BAP.

If the power increase is only estimated to be 15-20hp, I might be inclined to leave it be, but if 30-40hp increase is possible, then further wrenching might be warranted!

Thanks in advance for your input....

I would get the milled 20 thousands. I would think you would be looking at around 30+ RWHP. Have Jeremy Formato do your port work. Build thread is in signature, any other questions do not hesitate to pm me.

The gains are more substantial with NA cars. Seems you've gone after most of the low hanging fruit already. At this point heads going to be one of the next mods. E85, meth, or nitrous would be the alternatives as I see
