1/2 bridge port

Hey wassup ladies?? Yeah im new here. Anyways i was just wondering if anyone here has ever accomplished a 1/2 bridge port (street car) on a turbo II. I believe it'll give you more low end torque than just a full bridge port and, of course, the advantage out of the corner. Would i really need to travel to Mannasas, Fort Lauderdale, or Anaheim just to accomplish this task or can a rotary proffesional be able to take care of it in the midwest? I wouldnt want to trust a proffesional in the field of pistons and cylinders though. If anyone here has ever done this before can you guys give me a few feedbacks.

CURRENT MODIFICATIONS:
-upgraded downpipe (nothin aftermarket past where catilytic converter use to be)
-intake system (aluminum heat shield ^_^)
-KYB suspensions
-camber plates
-upgraded radiator


FUTURE MODIFICATIONS:
-Engine porting
-Aftermarket Brakes (maybe Porsche brakes?)
-try to replace stock hoses with silicon hoses
-turbo and intercooler
-fuel management
-ECU
-new shoes and laces (probably stickin with 16")

This list is can go on forever but i'll just stop here at what I think's "most important." So with these kinds of mods and future mods in mind what do you guys think?

Yes, half bridge TIIs have been done, I can't think of one right off though. I'd go look at or drive a half bridgeport car before you decide that that's what you want to do.
