You probalby won't see a gain from a ported throttle body. Varying weather conditions can easily have a larger effect than it. Were you expecting the SFC to help your 60' directly?

The SFC will help to keep your frame from distorting, but other than that they are dead weght.

I wouldn't expect to see a gain from those two. In fact, I might expect it to slow down a tiny bit due to the weight of the SFC's.
