port and polish?

Has anyone got a port and polish on their maxima. Cause I am about to do it and I was just wondering what i should be expecting to pay, and what kind of power gains ill get out of it.
thanx

It's a waste of money... don't expect much gains from it.

Remember, when porting out the heads...

...bigger is always better.
