Alright anyone can recommend a reputable shop who does great work for a great price? I am looking for a half bridge port. Going to do time attacks and grip racing so need about only 200-300 HP. Going NA for now and we will see if I want to go Turbo later. Thanks.

Just a suggestion, but it will be far easier to get to those power levels with a simple TII swap. Going BP and NA means a whole new set of intake manifolds, standalone (or carb), WIDE OPEN AND LOUD exhaust, etc.

hmmm ok... so it would be cheaper to buy a turbo swap? i have seen prices for engines and they 2k-3k range. which to me is super expensive since i used to live in japan. do you know where i can source turbo engines less than that?

That's about the price. But that's also how much it will cost to rebuild and port the NA engine, with all the extras necessary.
