Reman or Rebuilt
Im trying to decide where to get my new engine from. I am tempted to get a rebuild done at atkinsrotary, or rotary ressurection, but i love the fact that mazdas engines come with new housings and rotors. What have you guys had better experiences with?

Get yourself a rebuild video. If you have tools, you can do it. Its really not THAT hard. It also opens up the option of porting, amongst other things.

Glen does some seriously nice work. As for experience. He's been working on race cars with Paul Yaw so he knows building engines
Rat's running a motor built by him right now

Well, you neglected to mention your psi you'll be running as well.
9/10psi on stock turbo motor will be in the 170-190rwhp range.
Streetports are generally around a 10-20% increase depending on the porting done.
I do not think you would hit the 300 mark reliably.
You should look into a BNR hybrid turbo along with a streetport if you want to hit that number safely without making the motor work too hard.

How much for a reman?
The last time I checked at the Dealership, it was "cheap" and no core required. Atleast that's what I was told by the 'manager'. I even repeated myself and emphasized it. I believe it was a quote for $1200 about a year ago. Not sure if it was accurate. Can someone post up an accurate quote?
Thanks.

It depends on what computer you have, as far as what i can tell you, Chris Ludwig has tuned S4 TIIs for about 8 PSI of boost on a ported reman engine and gotten around 240HP at the wheels. He was using a haltech though. It was also on a first gen with a T2 tranny. Most FCs are in that ballpark though.
I still have to ask what is wrong with drifting, here they are having events at the sportsdrome in indiana and many people are interested in going, it's something to have fun doing.

Dear god....
Smartest thing you've said so far.
