No, bridge porting alters the intake timing so radically, it will not pass any smog testing.
If you're worried about emissions, there is very little options you have.
I'd highly suggest going turbo to get over 200hp.

Respecognize!
my friend who works for the mazda dealer showed me the online training they have for the RX8 and it explains the fundamentals of it.
1) The 13brew gets power a few thousands rpms before the Renisis can. So it will obviously be a faster car. then again, its twin turbo charged and the Renesis is not. So that is a retarded comparision.
2) in the tehc article on it, it said that the exhaut and intake ports where enlarged in comparison to the 13b we know and love. So basically the factory did the streetporting and exhaust porting for us.
3)The sealing technology went up another notch or two
4) like it was said above, the tolerances of the motor improved.
I should get some pics from the mazda tarining site. He has a password for it, but i will if i can get some pictures and direct quotes if anyone is interested.
