193 X 1.92= 371 CFM/14.471= 25.6 lbs/minute. that sounds about right to me re total air delivery on the X scale.



as far as porting...

the relationship between the exhaust and intake ports can have a major effect on the point at which a compressor cavitates. the amount of overlap can effect the output side force against the compressor.

when considering ports on a rotary there really is alot of confusion.. if you really want to understand what's going on you should study piston engine valve timing/camshaft dynamics.

that all said, messing w the stock turbosystem is putting lipstick on a pig. lots of EBP will cause high egts and kaboom. throw some AI at it please.

hc

when you do your calculations as to the CFM/turbo .. is this flow from the turbos into the engine or through the exhaust .... are they the same ... ?related via a certain ratio?

thx ....
