okay i know you can do so much to a turbo and you can get your car a lot faster with a turbo but seeing as they are such a headfuk to put on ..



so my question is what do you guys reakon is porting better for the rotary and it wont *** up or be as much of a head *** as a turbo or is the turbo the way to go???



and what prices are looking at for porting a 13b.. in Aus dollars or any other i can figure it out later....

it all depends how much power you want. a turbo would probably yield more power rather than just porting. porting also makes the car have very high peak power and without a turbo it won't have much torque.... i'm not exactly sure of your question.... :dontgetit:

well on a rotary if you want power then you need a turbo. Theres just not a whole lot you can do to get a na rotary to make it really quick and fast, unless you have a 4 rotor like on the 787b.

first of all how much power u want to make. after that u gotta ask your self what are you gonna do with this power, are you gonna road race, drag race or street race? then theres reliability. turbos are high maintanence but deliver the most high end power. porting depeneds on the port job u want to do. go check the different porting on that site and it explains how porting works and what your options are. on a final note; being the nut that i am i would probably do both
