How much of a power increase would i be looking at from getting a mild port/street port on my fc3s turbo?

Ive heard it can be up to 50%??

Maybe with other mods.
 
Will give you more top end, a higher power peak, and probably help in spooling a larger turbo, and will certainly make getting more power later easier.
 
Main things to do first are exhaust and intake - then you\'ll almost certainly hit boost creep and need to do something with the turbo - like wastegate porting.  Then a chipped ecu, piggy back or aftermarket ecu to add more fuel for the increase in boost.

The more you port, the more you move the powerband, think of porting like cams in a piston engine, a mild road cam will give more power but might move it up the rev band a bit, a full on race cam (like a periperhal port) would give lots more power, but its all at the top end.

with stock twins, exhaust and filter, what would streetporting achieve?

in terms of power and driveablilty?

Cool,I\'m not going to go any more than a mild port as I want to retain some day to day driveability.
So with all breathing mods and a wastegate port running around 0.8 bar with a street port what sort of power would I be looking at?

If you haven\'t already got one, get an aftermarket ECU.  Apexi PFC is a good choice.  With de-cat, standard IC and filters and a silenced midpipe I got 310 with a PFC.  I\'m getting a streetport now and 850 injectors and fuel pump and fpr and with a better downpipe I\'ll be happy with 350bhp at the flywheel on 0.9 bar
