unless you are going racing that is a bad idea. for the street you will get more throttle response with a slight mismatch, and the intake ports being smaller. it all has to do with the pressure waves that develope in a running engine. the port mismatch reflects most of that wave back at the intake valve and actually helps cylinder filling.
