Someone can correct me, but I don’t think it’s technically considered porting. They run a gritty mixture through the passages under pressure. There’s no (or very little) control on where the material is removed. Personally I would only use that process to polish, not to port. And for the price it doesn’t seem worth it. My $0.02.
