start at $1200 and go upwards.

In short, it you have to ask, you can't afford it.

5 angles means dick more than a 3 angle on the street. I'd just go with a factory rebuild and throw some twinkies in it.

Dont be stupid.
Those lame **** 5 angle valve jobs are for the poor SOBs with NA cars.

THats the whole idea of puting in a turbo. So we with our 20 year old cars with 8 valves and carbs can go out and spank their backsides.

If you have an IQ of more than 5.
Read up on all the Joey Mandelo articles you can find. Then buy a home porting kit from his company for like 60$ and do it yourself man.

I'm curious as to why this is in the forced induction forum, but whatever.

Anyway supposedly port/polish provides a nice increase in power whether you're N/A or FI. I wouldn't consider it as important with forced induction but if you're trying to squeeze every last bit of power out of your motor, a good port/polish job on the exhaust side would definately aid you in that quest.

I would think that if the engine is more effiicient and flows better it would help for both NA and turbo.
