The 3rd runner on the manifold is very restrictive the port is tiny compared to runners 1, 2 and 4 u can barley fit ur little finger down the runner.
The restriction on the 3rd runner is not good if you are running over 0.9bar of boost and can cause engine damage.
Porting it will remove the restriction and not cause damage when running higher boost levels.

yea as above, stock mani is very restrictive in all runners and at the collector. PM Ed, his username is 12345678 on here, he does a good job at them and not far from Belfast. If he isnt busy im sure he will do one for you.

Regarding gains, its more for the safety of the engine when running increased boost. Some will say an aftermarket mani is a better option, but for running a ct9/ct9 hybrid it is up to the job

Ed is a little further from Belfast than you think, he's working in Canada at the minute lol..

Anyone with a proper diegrinder should be able to port the stock manifold. Worth doing IMO.
