There are bits and pieces all over the place. Use the search engine on here and search for "port out", I know there's a thread with that in the name that has a couple web links in it. The thing about porting is that there are so many theories out there for what is beneficial and what actually hurts you. Prepare for a lot of reading and keep an open mind.

IMO, I would never have done the porting on my car if I didn't already have the tools and access to everything I needed for free. I've done and still do manifolds and O2 housings on the side, but I take them over to my dad's machine shop and actually put them on custom mounts to get the heavy stuff out and then do the fine porting and polishing by hand.

You want carbine bits. Thats a necessity. A bit expenisve but worth it. Im porting my EVOIII ex. manifold and my turbo now. I will do some before and after shots when I have them.

Carbide not carbine.. :laugh: You'll want carbide bits and they are specific for cast iron/steel and aluminum. A cast iron bit will clog within seconds if used on aluminum.

Are you looking to port your exh manifold/O2 housing or head?
