Porting Question.. but engine port

hey guys i have an extra turbo exhaust manifold sitting in my garage and i was wondering would it do any difference if i were to port it some more or just take the center section completely off and run like a full flow threw it?? would it make the turbo spool any quicker???
THanks

Port match the manifold to the gasket. You'll find that the ports in the manifold are smaller then the engine's exhaust ports.

Correct. Port matching it will do a body good. BUT becarefull you don't go all the way through.

And NOOOOO!!!! Do not remove that divider. It will cause your turbo to spool slower. It is divided to change the angle on which the exhaust gases hit the turbine.
