What are you going to do about the butterfly? Once you bore the inlet out your butterfly will be smaller, allowing air to come in all around it.Hmmmmmmmm

good call...anyone have an answer to that one?

They are probably just removing the hump in the airflow path, not FULLY porting to 55mm which needs the larger butterfly. Thats what I did.
