well if porting doesnt slow down engine response then go and tell that to all the guys at mines the tuners of the mines skyline, which they didnt port so accleration and engine response would be quicker which killed the amuse super by 4 seconds on the track which had being ported and had more hp
A skyline runs a 4 stroke engine with a turbo...it's not even close to the same as our little 2 stroke engines.. The person who ported the mine's engine probably had a lot of years in engine building and had the necessary equipment to do it right. All these people "porting" their engines just use a dremel and a DIY article.
AND, The reason why the Supra lost so bad was because it was obviously having trouble laying the power down, and it didn't help the LSD was blown or it was 2wd while the skyline was 4wd. If the LSD was still good, it'd of been interesting, but the skyline probably still would have won, just not as bad.
