I am building a Volvo 240 for 30 or so pounds of boost on e85. It will be a drift car and as such, I was wondering how much restriction there is in the stock 531 head with a turbo setup? I don't want a HORRIBLY laggy setup after all, though I understand some lag is inevitable. So to my understanding porting and bigger valves reduce velocity to the turbine causing more lag, and porting isn't all that useful unless you have bigger valves to compensate. So how is the stock 531 head under 30 psi, because say I decide to turn up the boost down the line, when does it become a real bottleneck in there? And how much would I seek to gain by adding say 38 and 46mm valves and porting it to hell
