Anyone know if it helps to polish (deburr) the air casing to increase air flow?

Polishing it, or changing the overall shape of it will change a lot of variables to the engine's performance dynamics.

But just smoothing it out will hurt airflow, as the best surface to promote airflow is dimpled. Unless you have another principal that you are working on... I.E. reversion wave refraction.
