Which is better to turbo?
I heard that it is a waste of money to turbo a 6 port and is better to turbo a 4 port. Does anybody feel like expressing their feelings on this? I havea 6 port and wanted to go turbo but I heard i would be wasting my money. Anybody with opinions?

it depends on your budget, dedication and goals. as Gitarjunkie28 said, the 4-port is better suited for it, but that's not to say that you can't build a great turbo car around your 6-port. for someone to say turbocharging your 6-port is a "waste of time" is just asinine.

Well I believe that turbo'ing a 6 port motor is a waste of time....but thats my preference.
The 6 port N/A irons wave a weaker casting and will break once you start to make power. Running 5psi boost and making like 200hp just isnt worth it.....
But hey, thats just my opinion.

it all depends on what you want. "better" to one guy is **** to someone else.
the one thing i will say, though, is rotaries go through a LOT of air!! that in and of itself lends the motor to turbocharging very nicely.
