rubberneck Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 could you help me out guys? im looking to spend like 170 for both the one guy told me it would be like 250 per cyclinder Believe me, i understand wanting to save some cash and get the most you can with what you want. That said, I dont think i would base my port guy based on the cheapest price. If done wrong, the bike could very easily run worse and make less power than stock. Read through some posts on here you will see lots of names. Call them and see what they say. List off the top of my head in no special order. FAST, K&T, passion, herrjuggs, A&S, Nate Mccoy, LC performance, flotec, redline, white knuckle the list goes on and on. Cheapest isn't always the way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajogejr Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 If you got anything more than a cleanup port for 170 on both...I'd be amazed. Then you're going to wonder why there's not much improvement for the 170 you spent. The average port job worth it's salt is going to be 350 to 600 dollars. If the budget is that tight, you're not ready yet for porting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STINKYDELUXE Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 I would put that money in the bank or in my matress until I had enough to get it done by a Reputable company or you could look at less expensive mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddleboy Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 well for 170 bones you will be just over half way with a good dune port. might as well just save another 170 and get a good one. thats if you dont need a clean up bore or hone, pistons and rings.

Tim Potteiger Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 If someone offers to do it for less than 400 (which would be cheap) run like hell. Expect to pay around 500 for a good port which will usually include a bore as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quikshee Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Herrjugs does a drag port for 400, I think paying more than that for a less than drag port job would be a rip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcardracing Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 If someone offers to do it for less than 400 (which would be cheap) run like hell. Expect to pay around 500 for a good port which will usually include a bore as well. My porting prices start at $200 for a trail port up to $300 for single exhaust drag porting, with no bore. With a bore/hone and new pistons it would be in the $500 range for a nice dune port. You've got to look at what you're getting. Just because a cylinder is being ported doesn't mean it is in need of a bore. I don't bore cylinders unless it's neccissary, because I like my customers to get the most out of thier port job. I'd hate to short them one bore size for nothing. IMO, if a builder can control his porting tools then a bore isn't manditory with porting. Did I mention that I have a whole list of very satisfied customers, HMM maybe I need to bump my prices up??? I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
