The more air you can get into each cylinder (off boost) the better, i know that porting the inlet (on a restrictive head) has a larger effect on VE than porting the exhaust. So aside from this a smoother cam lol..... although its probably pretty smooth any way (like round) being a kent lol

Simple answer is port both lol

Rob,
mate think of it this way .. you have a turbo forcing the air into the head on the inlet side but all you have to push it out on the exhaust side is the piston there is big gains to be had by porting the exh side imo.

p-s on a n/a head the exh side should flow about 70% of the inlet side but on a turbo engine you want the exh side to flow 90% min of the inlet side and none of the standard cvh heas do .
