porting adds power all over the rev range, its not as good on a turbo as a nasp as the air is forced in but its said to be 15% gain on a nasp and 5% gain on a turbo.

ive not seen anyone with an aftermarket inlet manifold (except myself ). most use an M series inlet with the throttle body re-positioned to open the restrictive part of the manifold.
