I mean to say on an NA the long port to the valves will help accelerate the intake charge helping both mid range and top end. the shorter wider port will flow at lower speeds, thou it might acctually work better at real high RPMs. this lower speed is a plus in boosted engines, but we r considering that you will be reaching either head's flow limits.
