j port is not feasible for a motor that you want to last more than 1000 miles or so because it cuts in to the water neck
and p ports are very expensive (over $2000 per housing)

wow that sounds pretty cool now im dreaming of what would make cheaper power lol a 13b or 20b hahaha. I was thinking of doing a bridge port for my 88 turbo I wonder what kinda of power i could get with my stock turbo and intercooler I was hoping to get to maybe 400hp andI know i would have to upgrade a few things like my fuel pump and go for bigger injectors and im pretty sure im missing something here too.... peripheral port isnt that for a carb setup or was i just seeing someones weird setup thanks guys for helping me with my newbie questions hahaha just dreaming afterall

^^^^ HAHAHAHAHAH
400hp with a bridgeport and stock FC turbo and IC
That was a good one, that turbo would run out of breath at about 5K if not sooner, and that IC will be way to small.
to make 400hp is easy
Big Streetport or Half-Bridge
GT-35 or similiar running (16psi for SP, 11psi for HB)
Front Mount IC
550cc Primary and 1600cc Secondaries
Aftermarket ECU (Power FC is plug and play with the adapter)

street, bridge or half-bridge will get you where you want to be, but (not to undercut what has already been said and suggested) you'd be doing yourself a favor if you provided some sort of intent - meaning what is the purpose of this 400 HP car you're "dreaming" of? the specifics of your use will dicatate the actual parts you'll need.

Just like building a computer, you need to know what it is going to be used for before you buy the parts.

So if you wanted to go bridgeport and a single turbo, the correct route would be get the turbo kit ready to install and then get the bridgeport. (instead of doing a bridgeport and runnin off the stock twins while you wait to get the cash together for a single.)

how long it lasts or how long it takes to port an engine?
longevity is totally up to build quality and owner use/maintenance.
if i have all of my materials and my housings have all been cleaned, then i can usually do all 5 housings in a day - maybe leave polishing the exhausts for another day, but your intakes can all be completed in a day's work. however, the whole process from teardown to assembly is much longer - at least, it is for me.
