Bit of help on my 6port turbo project..
alright i was wondering i searched for awhile never found the answer i needed i am working on getting my motor rebuilt and ready for boost..and i was wondering can you swap turbo 2 rotors into a 6port 13b? and would the effect of lower compression be worth it and if it is how much work does it take to do it. sorry if i sound stupid asking this but i just wanted to know..
You can, but what would be the point? The whole point of bolting a turbo onto a 6port motor is to take advantage of both the increased airflow and the higher 9.4/9.7 compression ratios.

well at the moment i have no money..trying to get my fc running right now i'm most likely gunna buy another shell to put the boosted 6port in once i get a job..but if i go megasquirt, i dont think i could make a harness for it thats the only thing...

Power and reliability aren't dependent on the CR, more-so the wallet involved. I've ran many large turbos (GT35-42R's) on a S5 N/A stock block without blowing it up. It's all about knowing what you're doing and being prepared and tuning for it.
and with 9.0 and 8.5 2mm turbo rotors
- first of all, all s5 rotors and mass weights are same , NA and turbo
same as the s4 NA and turbo rotors and mass weights are the same
use them, and move them as sets !
do not mismatch s5 and s4 moving parts with one another
- as for the motors, i have settled on the turbo de- comp rotors as the best comprimise
( i also use the turbo oil pump and turbo primary plate )
these will take some pretty normal ignition timing numbers and drive like a good extend port with minimal low down losses
the 9.4 rotors on the other hand do bite very well off boost
- but have a limit around 10 psi ( on 98 RON fuel ) before you find a need to get pretty radical in your retard with boost ignition numbers
( and it becomes a pointless exercise until more octane or WI is added )
if you planning for 1 bar boost, and especially if your ignition fidelity isn't great
( a lesser ECU )
then err to the turbo 9.0 rotor s if you can get them
if you plan on more than 1 bar boost, go s4 8.5 turbo rotors
i have built and owned and tuned all of the above combos, bar the 9.7 rotors
my personal rx2 motor is currently a 6 port turbo hybrid with 9.0 rotors
PS
i also try and get s5 front and rear plates if i can , the rear is significantly stronger than s4
the front has a superior oil passage O ring design
