They have the same throttle body, and no power to be gained.

There are many throttle body porters out there that can port your TB---It's a cheap mod and adds about 5-8 RWHP--However the throttle response is far superior--Not really measureable--other than seat of the pants--But the initial launch will be easy to feel
Just give it about 50-75 miles of normal driving until the Fuel Trims relearn --as it will be lean until it learns out at P/T---
