um, did you port the 5th and 6th pi to unify them with the port beneath them? there are 2 seperate round holes there on mine, and one oval on yours, so i'm assuming thats what hapened. but I'm not sure, just trying to learn this shiznit!

This is a 4-port turbo motor, venom. The turbo motors have two primary intake ports and two secondary intake ports. The N/A motors, however, use 6 -> the 5th and 6th ports you're talking about are the top two that have those sleeve-inserts in them that rotate. That's the motor you're probably accustomed to looking at.

I did both of them but they're a bit hard to tell from the pictures from some reason. I may not have beveled them at a sharp enough angle. I did run the apex seal across the port from opening to closing and there wasn't any intrusion on the seal anywhere.

Yeap sometimes the digi camera works funny. I have had to take pictures over and over just to get the image I was looking for. Nice work by the way.. I could feel your dedication. I think we need to buy our own piece of land and have just rotorheads live in it. something like: Rotorlandia.... The land of extraordinary people.
