Port it x2. Either do the work yourself or buy one that offers a core exchange like Jantzer's, Shaner's, or the guy on here, can't remember his name, should be able to find it in a search.

Have SilverGhost port and polish yours. He will also do the half-shaft mod and bump stop mod as well. It should give you about 5-7 rwhp.
