Default Going to port my TB later, any suggestions

Well i'll be heading to east cost performance to get a dyno tune and I wanna try to get as much HP out of my car as possible before i go, so i'm gonna do the free ram air mod and port my TB. Any suggestions/tips on porting it? I have the article from ls1camaro.net so i think im set. How much of a gain should i expect from doing these two mods?

I hand ported mine with sandpaper along with a little dremeling. I had idle issues afterwards as I think I took out to much of the lower lip. But they tuned out fine. Throttle response is good and I think I picked up a few ponies. Just becareful that you don't take any off the housing where the blade closes. I used epoxy to fill in the PCV cavity. It's gonna be messy, but you'll get it done. Make sure you let it cure overnight too.
