I dont think a ported head is very benificial for a boosted application.What do you think? If the damage is not too bad I may go with a cam too,not sure yet. I cant wait to tear it down so I can get an idea of what the cost is going to be. It would sure be sweet to pull 500rwhp next time on the dyno
Well,we all gotta have dreams I guess. I'll really just be happy as hell when it's back running again

Well some TSS rings are sweet. Low friction and more vac. They are like $200-400 per set. Balanced rods, pistons, and pins are good cheap idea.
Ported heads bad on FI?!? No way! You can get more air flowing = more power. You will lose boost (oh no!
) but probably 1-2psi...just stick on the smaller pulley to get your street boost back.
