This is correct, you gain little to nothing by just removing and smoothing what's there on these intakes...
That said, I am currently in discussion with Will @ Overkill to basically modify intake manifolds for him... He wants to offer the 80mm throttle body for the LGX crowd, but due to the LGX intake manifold design it's not really feasible as the 80mm opening is larger than the oring seal in the front of the intake manifold, so the seal hole needs to be filled, and the throttle body adapter permanently attached, then fill and port the intake manifold to match the new opening...
So if this does happen, basically you'd get the ported intake manifold to suit an 80mm throttle body, w/ throttle body as a whole kit.
Will is supposed to be sending me parts to I can start on this project.
