I doubt anyone has or will attempt this mod. Good luck to you
i'm not sure this has been done before, but i think i've read that the versa ecu is adaptive. meaning it may take a little while for the car to figure out what you did to it. then you should see the improvements.

thanks..my friend just did this mod on his MR18DE, and so far he got significant power, and he told me that he will help me to do this mod on my car...

Thanks all...:thumb2:
I'm considering it over the winter for my MR20 as well

If we keep our car for a while, we'll probably do this, too...
how long does it take for it to adapt?

It could be something as simple as that the HR16DE engine was developed with the ports being the most effecient size to begin with. By making them bigger you slowed down the velocity of air which made the engine slightly less effecient.

I'm not saying that this IS what happened, but modern engines are made to be very effecient from the factory in order to meet the tough emmision requirements of EU and US.

You should definitely be carefull in doing this man. My recommendation is to get a intake gasket and place it over the intake manifold side of the head and shave to make sure they would not get damaged as you do the polishing.
