Not a whole lot since your intakes are pretty good from the factory. To really utilize any type of porting and polishing you first need to change your cam and P&P your heads as well.

^true..
but if you do heads cam and intake you'll see anywhere from 60-100 hp gained, depending on the cam you get
so if you're gonna do the intakes, you might as well do the entire top end

A 99+ will not gain 100HP do to the efficiency of the motor already but a 94-98can reach near 100HP gain do to the rather weak stock RWHP. I have seen some 94-98 autos dyno at 98 RWHP and with Heavily ported upper and lower intakes combined with a well matched cam it is possible to achieve 190-200 RWHP

Ya I can do those for you rather quick and cheap. I charge $100 for each, plus a $30 core for each too.

I could do each intake in a day, so two full days. And I have intakes sitting around my garage, so you don't need to drive here if that's what you mean. Each intake would be $100 + $30 core, + shipping, so it would be something like $140 or something close to that for each intake.

well lets say $30 an hour for labor and + parts. If you do the intakes, you might as well do the heads, too and to switch out the heads is about 8-10 hour job. So it would be about 250-300 for the labor and then for the parts Upper, lower, and heads would be another 350, and then parts (Gasket, head bolts) is about another $100. So all together it would be about $700-$800.

This is not a bad price at all and if you do some research you will find that it is about the same price as other companies would want if not a little less since we are adding the price of labor  |

All of this depends on what you want out of your car on what you should do. You need to go to some websites and do some research and maybe get some Tech magazines that are out there and you will find out a lot of what you need to know. |
