Either way if your going to the trouble you might as well put something different on (BIGGER!!! ) I think Crucial Racing does good porting....dont know of anywhere else local.

Yea thats where I was probably gonna go becuase I figure I can just pick up my DP from them and drop off the turbo the same day.

STi btw..

Why are you getting the stock turbo ported? I thought the new stock turbo on the 07 prevented boost creep.
