I really don't know much about porting and wasn't sure if it would require specific tuning or any problems that may result from the porting. Plus I pretty much went all summer without my car and was just dying to have it back lol. I havent seen much research on porting the renesis and am hesitant about messing with reliablility, lord knows i've had enough problems with the car in the past year i've had it, and didn't want to open up another can of worms by messing with porting.

no worries, man.
it's all good. you see, any one of what you mentioned are valid reasons (money, minimal downtime, apprehension for fuel use, etc.). however, it was the "gains now versus gains back then"-thing that i was responding to. like i said, it's your car, and i respect that, regardless. i would just want you (or anyone considering porting on a Renesis) to decide based on its own merits and liabilities and NOT based on a comparison of the older days.
