Sell the 2g head. You can pick a stock reman 1g head really cheap. I've seen them on eBay ready to go for $250.00-300.00. It will flow much better than the 2g head.

Well I don't want to sell my magnus SMI, or have to buy all that other stuff I already have,
Plus I plan to port the 2G head. Hense the comments about Raptor posting his information.

You can make a 2g head flow more than a 1g head, but it requires raising the intake port roof, relocating the injectors/rail assembly and extensive porting.

We know ;) actually, at that point it is way beyond a 1G head, it will flow better than the most ported 1G head in fact, that is why the 2G head is desireable, it is better base to go extreme with. One of these days I will post pics of the sectioned heads we have sitting by the porting bench, they are pretty interesting. We have quest ones cut up as well as a stealth head this week. The flowbench is getting closer as well so I will be able to show you numbers. One thing about head flow, it is possible to make a head flow more and lose horsepower from fuel suspension issues, so the flowbench will have wet flow capabilities so we can make sure that isn't the case.

Well if you want a test vehicle to use to try out your Race port 2G head. You know how to get a hold of me! ;)
Also when you say relocate your injectors what/where are you talking about?

You don't need to go hog wild on a 2G head to make power, they're not that bad.

well if Eclipsed20G can make 551whp on a stock 7 bolt, stock 2G TB, stock 2G Intake, with just cams and ARP's then I should be good to go cause that's about where I want to be.

Some shops who are going for the extreme flow raise the roof of the intake port, enough to have to move the injectors up and closer to the valve cover surface.

Honda's and EVOs have tiny ports. Both can make a lot of power without having to touch the head. Bigger isn't always better. The stock 2G intake manifold sucks, most people so the 1G head and 1G intake at the same time and possibly get most of their power gain from the intake manifold.

Hopefully next year I'll try to see just how far I can go with a Stock 2G head.
Hopefully 35psi@c16 will give me some good results...but only time will tell.
