I use to do a bit of porting and polishing and what I found with my customers was it increased top end alot, but low RPMs suffered from slow bottom end throttle response.
So performance increased but drive ability suffered slightly.

*Edit*
Thinking back those were all on carb`d units, perhaps a fuel injected unit would not experience that, or it may not be as bad.
