It essentially shortens the runners for more top end power. You won't really notice the difference unless you're running a cam though.

I gives a kick but if you cam or put rockers the benefits multiplies. You will feel a kick after 4k where the engines usually trail off.

Unless you've got rockers or a cam, it will hurt your 1/4 times.
