Intake manifold port and polishing?

Anyone have any experience with port and polishing stock intake manifolds... Is it safe? am I better off spending the $ for aftermarket? what's the deal

Useless. -- A port and pollish should be one of your final mods, you can easily HARM performance this way, and you probably have.

I got my ride back from Honda and I am very pleased... She is running clean. just a little rough idle, that's too be expected with the upgraded cams.... need some fuel mods now and timing gears..
