Default head job

i have a quick question. how much hp do you all think a port and polished head will give a otherwise slightly modified engine? jdm intake manifold, spoon chip, header, and intake being the other mods. Thanks for your help.

well actually i did go to the pros, my machinest does motor work for top racers around the area. I looked at the portflow site and its says some stuff but i didnt see any flow bench tests of any head just ported and polished since that was the original question. Angle vlave jobs are a different story..
