doubtful. Maybe some, but I do not think it would be enough to notice a difference.


I agree. However, polishing the intake runners does make a noticeable difference with forced induction. At the end of the day this is a 6,000lbs Montero with 200hp. You'd need quite an increase power to even notice. I reckon I can't 'feel' a power increase of less than 5 hp in my miata and I can feel every pebble on the road in that thing. If I could 'feel' a 2-3hp increase, someone should be paying my to drive...and they're not (I don't mean a taxi <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />)

I think my earlier question got swamped. Should I be worried about this issue with my SOHC 3.5L <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
