DuMaurier 7....i just want to say, you are cool. I would love to have that setup. Im thinking about a half bridge as well, but worried about engine life and i'm unsure of other precautions to take to undergo this. As of now im still trying to figure out what turbo i want to go with (most likely 60-1) i was thinking about a twin setup, but not sure yet, i need to look more into it and find out more about what i would need etc. Can you guys help me out on that? I would like to know what i would need for a twin setup and i would just like to know as much as possible. Thanks.

Pics of my set up are located here[URL=http://www.the-rotary.net/images/misc/.

As for saying I'm cool , thanks but its just about trying to help out and keep the ROTARY FLAG flyin high!!.I also have some info on the specs for twins pm me if you need to know.

you dont smoke at startup like every other rotary with no cats?



yes 2mpg is a gross exaggeration....but its pretty close too it...



i know what "i am speaking about"....it leaves me to wonder if ur not letting yourself realize that a pp big turbo car is streetable but really isnt smart...punch the gas in rain, spin

i dont smoke at startup, i have no emissions to speak of



oh yes, and does yours not spin when you punch it in the rain?

FrestyleFC3S 08-17-2003 11:50 PM

going straight no it dont? .. but obviously you undertand what im saying guys...half bridge isnt the same as PP aslo man

DuMaurier 7 08-18-2003 03:47 AM

No it isn't the same as a pp , but similar in one way that makes them more alike than you think , both types introduce some overlap into the equation , how much overlap is totally dependant on how aggressive the porting is done , overlap is what spools a "BIG BOY".

I agree with you in a sense , by the fact that I think a "whole " PP is too HARDCORE for the street and would be a BITCH to drive /handle, but thats my opinion , there are guys down here who drive those things on the street everyday and are quite happy with them , its a matter of taste like anything else.

To strike a compromise and get a bit of both worlds one can do what myself and many before have done , go halfway or mix the porting. Mine is bridged and street ported there is also partial pp where there are small "auxiliary" pp's used with the normal street port , if you like you can even mix the bridge porting with the pp porting , the list can go on and on it's up to you, any of these combinations can be used sucessfully with less of the drawbacks you point out (and blatantly exaggerate to try and force a point).As I said before the individual needs to sit and think about what he wants to achieve and at what cost , do some research and speak to people who KNOW (by actual experience , not hear say) and go for it , you wont be disappointed .

Sounds like a pretty good plan. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683811.gif

Nobuteru 08-18-2003 02:07 PM

Where can i get this partial PP done. Is there a way to get a PP but with smaller openings?

Nobuteru 08-19-2003 12:11 AM

Also, does anyone know where i can get a 13B-RE? (not REW)

You wouldn't want a PP port as a daily driver...I can't see for the life of me why you'd want a half bridge as a daily driver, but it's been done before. I drive a modest sideport with a huge exhaust port and an HKS t-45S so I know about lag and top end pull, but I also like to be able to hear if sirens are coming https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

toddp31 08-19-2003 01:18 AM

come on jspecracer7 you know that is never enough! It is fun being def and scaring people when you shot fire balls. I am just going to make one giant hole the size of plate, it will idle a 5k but that's ok. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



If this is your first 7 and your are going Partial P expect to rebuild it in a alot shorter amount of time than a sideport. Have an extra motor ready https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

jspecracer7 08-19-2003 02:15 AM

after dealing with IGY's bridgeport for a year...I won't go bridge unless I have a daily driver with a/c and p/s. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/violin.gif

I owned a 13B P/Port for about 9 months and found that it was fun doing burn-outs but **** for a daily drive. Idled at 2K and only ran nice above 5K. Strong motor but very short life span.But heaps of fun...

Nobuteru 08-19-2003 03:30 PM

what do you guys suggest then? Im thinking now about a 13B-RE. Any more suggestions?

toddp31 08-19-2003 05:12 PM

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif Mine is a b16

Why would a pp have a short lifespan? If done properly I would think they should last a good while.

Nobuteru 08-19-2003 11:55 PM

can a small PP be done?

It all depends on the engine builder and how good of a job he did. But mine was 9 months old when I sold her and she was still very strong

Nobuteru 08-21-2003 07:45 PM

So, suggestions? is a small PP possible? (holes not as large) Where can i get a 13B-RE?
