Those pieces all look nice...but how much do they really gain? My buddy does killer head work, mostly for race cars...and said he would port match my plenum with my t/b when I get my heads done, is it worth it?

Is it Worth It?
I have seen posts where a before and after dyno yielded about a 10 hp gain. The porting and polishing (manifolds & heads) helps more as you increase boost. I got an exturde honed upper intake from Paul's for $200.00 (no exchange).

I put in my Extrude Honed intake and JDM phenolic spacer at the same time. I don't know wich one is creating all of the power, or if it's both. But I have to honestly say that the combination is worth quit a bit. I highly recommend way before electric fan, electric water pump, long tubes, etc.
