Default Cylinder Head

Wanted to see if anybody has gone to any lengths to try to make their cylinder head any better by taking it off and taking it to a machine shop? I want to see if it is worth it or not. This is obviously a big project and expensive but someone out there has had to do this. The head reworked would be a great addition to any tC. What kind of power differences were seen?

No one has an opinion about this subject. The research I have done on cylinder heads for any car seems to be get it re-worked and gains are pretty substantial. It is definitely not a bolt on mod but probably worth the money. Any experiences out there?

Unless you have FI i dont think you will notice anything. You can also get intake manifold either by Descedant or weapon-r.

but again those mods are also primarily for FI.
