I'd advise against it. seems like too much work that wouldn't make the biggest differance, I'd spend the money on a decent mod, what mods do you currently have?

Why would you want to do this? I am doing a 6 Port Turbo. So I have a S4 NA Short Block And Im putting a T2 UIM and LIM on it, You ahve to Port match the LIM with the 6 port block. Because the T2 is only a 4 port block.

oh man,. where to begin.... well first off if you have the right manifolds for your motor its already port matched. i guess if you really wanted to you could smooth up the runners, but thats about it. but mixing and matching is going to get you nowhere fast.

and taking out the aux ports would be bad. your motor will be more worthless than that of a geo metro.
the only way to port the engine to to crack her open and do it

+1 those ports are there for a reason so pulling them out will be bad its not the same as porting it if you were to put on the t2 Mani might as well go the whole way to get a NA-T build going like what Nytrate has going for him there are alot of write ups on the boards about it

JM, What I was saying is Why would u want to run a T2 UIM AND LIM on a NON TURBO 6 Port motor? And keep it NA... Just doesnt make sense to me.

My Situation, I have A 87 S4 NA Engine. I am going to take that NA engine and make it turbo. Soo 6 Port Turbo. I am running T2 UIM AND LIM so I had to Port match the LIM to fit onto the 6 Port block.

well if its open you have two porting options.
a) buy the templates and do it yourself. usually not the best option, but if your running a s4 na go for it, plates and housing for these engines are a dime a dozen.
b)send them off to a pro to have them done. although this option is a bit more spendy the results are usually a lot better.
