The TB are the same.
Hp increase should be about 40-hp near 6000 with a significant loss of low speed torque. Peak power may only increase 10-15 hp around 5400-5600. Power shouldn't drop like it does with the unported intake and stock cam combination. With unported stock heads, a smaller cam would probably work better with the same hp increase with less torque loss.
