Worth porting the stock redtop exhuast/turbo ?

I know DSMs get a desent amount of power for porting. I was just wondering if its worth my time to port the stock exhuast manifold, exhuast housing, wastegate hole, and O2 housing. I have the tools, its just a matter of "is it worth my time", plus this isn't my car/motor.

you can clean up the manifold a little bit to improve flow. but beyond that you cant really do much. most people just replace the restrictive parts...but i prefer to port out the manifodl a bit rather than replace it. the replacement ones flow nice but they all have cracking problems.

Spend the money on other areas like maybe a better quality turbo. Factory intake manifold flows quite well.
