Any ported heads are well worth it on a modded sc build. Turbo cars benefit a little but not a whole lot and IMO n/a cars never need ported heads tale that money and top swap before adding ported heads to a n/a car.

Also make sure you buy known good ported heads (zzp/intense) self ported heads if not done right can flow worse than factory heads.

FYI zzp is making aluminum heads again, there the best of the best but VERY expensive.
