what do you think?

I would like some peoples input on what to do. I need to decide between a large street port or j-port. I will be using it as a daily driver and at autocross. I also have a header for it, so it will be just a little loud, haha. I will have an electric cutoff after the header, so i can decide if i want it to be quite or loud. I just bought a rebuild kit for the s5 engine i have with super seals and racing springs....What do you think? street or J-port?

For daily use, street port all the way. Although it's been done, the J-Port is just rediculous for daily use. I'm not entirely clear on what set up your going for?

if you plan on driving at all on the streets especially as a daily as you said, NOT a J-port. large streetport max.

and with that you *should* be able to turbo no problem. Its a bit more difficult to do due to restriction of air flow etc with a stockport

Beleive it or not the stockports can flow 200 hp with a turbo. At least that's the most I've heard
