Default port and polish on an h22 head

well, i bought an h22 head so i can do a port and polish job on it. i've asked people around if its worth doing the job. one person told me that i wouldn't feel that much of a difference and it would be better if i just get nitrous. that comment made me hold back but i want to know what u guys think. i just want to leave the head stock how much power would i get from this type of job and is it worth it?

Not worth it until you get some serious mods going. IE forced induction.

just take it down to a reputable machine shop and have the head cleaned up, looked over, they can mill it to bump your compression and if wanted, they could do a light p&p. If you're going with aftermarket valves, springs, retainers, etc.. bring that all down and they'll be able to assemble it all for you, make sure the valves seal, etc..
