It's doubtfull that this would help to make horsepower if thats what your getting at. The specific shape and squish designed into the head of a multifuel is such so as to be able to burn multiple fuels, and it's my understanding that much design and spesefications were designed into the combustion chamber shape. so porting with low velocity due to low rpm and cfm needs, I think its unlikely.

Would a P&P increase the ammount of CFM's that make it into the combustion chamber? Also would a decrease in restriction and turbulance lower EGT's and allow for a more complete burn?
My thought is you could increase the efficiency of the engine with no actual design change, and therefore would not affect the durability and reliability.
My other idea is to explore how much ceramic coating and heat wrapping the exhaust from the heads to the turbo would benefit the engine.
I tend to think it wouldn't make that much difference either. I have no data to back it up though. I'm sure it would make a difference I just don't think it would be enough to ever notice.
IMO the best thing you could do to increase available O2 would be to find a way to stuff a charge air cooler in front of the radiator.
add 1si of boost to get that kind of cfm improvment. it's not going to help much. I have tried this on other motors. if it was a NA motor then I'd say yes it could help a lot. but with a boosted engine, porting will not help near as much. there are many other ways to get more power. you should spend about 120 hours to do this properly on a multi and you could net nearly nothing. more fuel, water inj, more boost, and you should have more than enough power to hurt the trans or xcase.

don't forget the money that'll have to be spent on new gaskets.

An air to air or water to air inner cooler might help but finding some place to mount so as to be protected from damage would be a challenge. And how about modernizing the turbo something with say ceramic bearings.
Why not do all of the above? Like most guys here I love to tinker and always have a project. I don't have a Deuce yet, but when I get one the list of what id like to do with it is endless.
Cylinder head port and polishing
