new to n/a's looking for good info

hello, welll first of all ive been in the rotary scene for a while, not new to this but i've always had turbo rotarys not n/a's, right now im building my gxl(TII) swap, well i already did the swap a couple of years ago but now i took the engine out to make changes, street port, bigger turbo etc. but everytime i see my engine i wonder how could it perform if i made it a bridgeport n/a or a p-port n/a. i love rotarys either turbo or n/a but you can't really beat the sound of a n/a rotary engine. im very familiar with turbo rotarys but not so much with n/a's, if anyone can give me some knowledge of 4 port p-port and 4 port bridgeport engines ill apreciated since ive searched and there's not so much info. also im talking about a series 5 turbo II engine don't get the renesis here lol i don't plan on getting one.

in a P port, the normal intake ports are filled and new ones put in the rotor housing, hp depends on the intake and exhaust setup, but 290-320 hp@8500-9000 flywheel hp is normal.

power of the bridge depends on the size and shape of the port.

am i the only one tickled by the fact that someone located in Puerto Rico is coming to the Internet to seek knowledge of rotaries? just joshing you, man.


anyway, just to add to what J9FD3S has already imparted, intake and exhaust setup are equally important on the bridgies, too.

hehe i figured someone was going to say that lol, yeah im seeking some knowledge because im not really sure on what to build, building a n/a engine p-port that has 290-320 hp would be a pretty good machine to have fun in. i already have the mods to back it up, i also have a microtech installed .plus a p-port 300hp n/a rx7 is not something you see everyday, big hp turbo rx7's are becoming common. i know some will say it won't be streetable but you can really drive almost anything here on the street lol. im beggining to like this idea but need more info, does the 6 port header fits the 4 port engine?? or do i have to make a custom??. i know that if i go p-port i have to build a custom intake manifold but almost every p-port engine i've seen has been changed to carb or webber. anyone know of one that is FI?? or one that i can see.

thanks

the header will physically fit just fine, but you probably want to use something appropriate for your port type (bridge, peripheral). there are a few threads around here that discuss collector lengths and port types and such, so you should give them a look. post whatever questions you have. i can't seem to get enough of that kind of discussion.
