i think you would be better served by just having the heads ported and polished by a qualified shop...although you might want to read through AMG-Jerry's thread before you go that route about porting the heads... 
Extrude Hone will not really help in our application because we do not have an Intake Manifold where you have areas that can not be reached by hand...i ported everything on my supercharger and intake runners myself by hand...

C32
Thank you so much for all of you. You guys run superfast C32s and I am impressed with what you guys have done.
Erick - Thanks for your advise, unfortunately, i dont really know if there are any qualified person for this job in Hong Kong. But anyway, how different was your car after the porting and polishing, did it really make a great difference, how much was gained. Thanks
AMG Jerry - can you pls PM me a few pics of your ported heads. Thanks
C32used - Thanks for your info, I will look into it. Thanks
Went through a couple of BMW forums and the 335i are running real real fast.

E63 P30, CL500 Sport
- Bigger LET pulley (very nice design and high quality).
- LET Headers (proven on the dyno).
- SL55 splitter, SL55 intake boxes (with K&N filters), SL55 tubes.
- Performance Spark Plugs & Wires.
- LET or Code3Performance Heat Exchanger.
- Johnson Marine CM30 Pump (until someone makes a better one).
- Kleemann Cams (made specifically for the C32).
- EvoTech or RennTech custom ECU tune.
- RennTech monolight 18" rims or other high performance light weight rims (big weight savings and extra whp on the dyno).
- Other weight saving parts (Brembo rotors, carbon fiber hood, etc.... )
- Wait for LET Twin Turbo project to complete (hurry up guys
).- Evosport NOS Kit for C32 (I think gives +60 hp shot) and I think they can boost it to a 100 if you really want to go extreme
Then you'll truely have the ultimate C32 around
I almost had all these mods myself minus the NOS and cams. I was so close to purchasing the Kleemann cams to complete my car's transformation, but I just had to go and test drive a freakin E63 with Performance Package
Good luck........

Porting and Polishing the heads may be a little risky method of gaining the extra power. AMG-Jerry is probably the best person on this forum to give you more input about the project, as he went through the whole thing not too long ago. For now (or at least until this subject is researched more), I would go with the following mods before thinking about porting and polishing:
- Bigger LET pulley (very nice design and high quality).
- LET Headers (proven on the dyno).
- SL55 splitter, SL55 intake boxes (with K&N filters), SL55 tubes.
- Performance Spark Plugs & Wires.

C32
Thank you all for the input.
I already have the LET HE sitting on the table, parts waiting is the 185 LET pulley, and the ECU tune, look forward to the pulley Erick!!!
I think the Kleemann Cams are attractive, before looking into this, I need to finish up reading the post on Porting by AMG-Jerry. Still a long way to go.
I have the complete SL55 intake sitting in my house. The car came with this thing when i bought it used (Likely, the last owner had parted out pullies and stuffs). I did not put it back on because it doesn't fit too well. Anyone have pictures of SL55 intakes nicely fitted onto a C32 for my reference.
Thanks in advance.

As many wise people here have already stated. Your money, and time, would be better off spent elswhere my friend. IF, and I REALLY mean IF, you want to proceed with this, I would HIGHLY suggest buying them off Jerry. He has spent buckets full of money on his project, and with the stock blower, YOU WILL NOT SEE THE GAINS I FEEL YOU ARE LOOKING FOR HERE. Our blowers are already pretty near there tolerances, ie speed, so you will NOT be able to pick back up the boost, due to volume and speed issues, to make spending this kind of money wise.
GOOD LUCK
See yeah
PS: Think NITROUS for the gains you want, it will be ALOT cheaper my friend.
