Erik,

If you're starting with a standard/production disc there are definite gains in cyro/heat treating.

If you start with a performance discs the gains are considerably less, due to the fact that most performance discs (AP racing/DBA 4000/5000 series) have all ready been trough a heat treatment process.

If you're thinking about the disc in the AP HSV kits, the discs have all ready been heat treated in the factory so you would see little gain for the cost.
