I don't mind not having a non-running RX-7. I have fun with it even in my driveway.

I just really have to buy another car to get me around.

It could be ported, but your rpm range would be higher.

Back from the dead......How did you bridge-port guys use the water seals if they were cut out to match the port on the rotor housings? Jbridge is what I plan on doing.

These engines will use a bit of fuel. I have a Turbocharged 13b 929 Hiflow standard s4 turbs. Standard injectors. I had it use 1/4 of a tank in 20km. A 65litre tank. It needs a tune. I have a street port (mild). It will run at 800 fairly comfortably, but seems to really run well at 1,000rpm.
