Default Extrude hone Intake?

Can the LS6 Intake be Extrude honed? I was just wondering because it would seem you could pick up at least 20cfm if this was possible. Anybody?

I've heard of people trying but doing more damage than good. But that was just on a stock LS1 intake. But I'm sure the same principles apply to the LS6 one as well, seeing as how they're made out of the same material. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Id try it on an LS1 intake first and if it works out then do it on an LS6. But I really dont think that it could be done because of the fact that its made of thermo plasitc or whatever its called. If it was an aluminum intake, I would say go for it, but just the fact that its plastic would make it seem like it would make the intake too weak.
