I'd say go medium street port. ...Although a OEM port will give you the best Tq band/Hp ratio. Just concentrate on getting a nice turbo. I'd suggest a 35R or equivilent.. maybe a BW-S3 series. Don't get all size happy and throw some ridiculous 45R on your car. It'd be a waste and completely useless. A nice mid range power band with 350-450 WHP should be your goal. On OEM ports you'll have to run higher boost...and I'd suggest water/Meth or even alcohol injection. Or if you have e85 readily available in your area...i t might be worth it to go that route. Get a GOOD tune.. which means not a street tune, not your buddy tunning your car out of his garage, not a piston head tuner who says they know what they're doing, .....I mean a guy who tunes rotaries and knows them well. Power FC, Haltech, Motec, even the newer Link G-4 standalones are all excellent platformes to control eeeeeerrrthang. Do it once... Do it right. Otherwise...just get a v-8.
^ all this.
talked with mike whiddet yesterday and they're dumping the bridgeport for a small streetport, better overall power-wise and driveability.

It seems that streetporting is the best rout, had a buddy who kinda made a mistake with half-bridge and 9.7:1 rotors with a bigger t4 turbo. It made awesome power but the longevity wasn't really there sadly. I know j-lowe and his dad suggested a streetport, and it seems to be working well for him.
