It's all about how much area an engine makes under the torque curve over the usable rpm band. If your power band is below 6,000rpm your not giving up a whole lot if anything depending on the combination and especially the cam.
I have been tempted to change my upper intake to a comp polymers box upper. My lower is nicely ported. Even if it doesnt improve hp it really cleans up the engine bay.
