Depending on what mods you\'re running, you could probably get away with porting if you\'re running stock exhaust and induction.  Any increases in flow at either end (induction or down/mid pipe/catback) and you\'ll need the ECU to handle it to be safe.

It will sound different - the more it is ported then the more it will brap - i think!  :D

I personally would have thought you should have an aftermarket ECU for the mods you have at the moment??

As I mentioned in my earlier post the engine will hunt if it is heavily ported (i.e. the revs will vary between about 600 & 1200) so yes the tone of the engine is likely to change!  :D
