Default ported heads with MS3?

Anyone have a set of ported heads with a MS3 cam? Pistons not flycut.

What kind of gains did you see with the heads ported?

Got a friend who just installed the MS3 and a set of heads from Texas Speed.
M6 with all bolt-ons, no fly-cut, pulled around 425 on a nitrous tune if I recall correctly. Don't remember the torque.
