    You may have been closer to correct than you think. A smaller intake port runner will speed up the mixture and help to pack the cylinders better, resulting in a higher cylinder pressure, the same result you might get with a smaller chamber.

    Thank you. I am having a hard time deciding. I don't want to be winding this thing out all the time. If I take it from 525 hp down to 510 hp that's not going to kill me but I want a good pull and snappy throttle response
