Default port flowing headers and uppipe

hi guys will have a vf34 on my car soon an was wondering has anybody ported there exhaust heads an uppipe themselves with a grinder or a tool to do it. wanting as good as spool up as possible. do they all have to be ported identically to eachother or is there a give or take situation between each pipe. all help is appreciated. cheers for looking

Fiestaboy has been doing this for as long as I've known him and it seems to work well and a lot of people swear by it and for the cost it's well worth doing

it's easy with a decent die-grinder, just use the gasket as a guide to make sure you don't go too far with the porting.

easy to use a die-grinder due to its size, I'm not sure how you would get into the bore of the 'zorst unless it's a tiny grinder
