Depends on the porting.

This is an interesting article:

Seems a stock ported 13B has a VE around 70%, with turbocharging or porting taking it quite a bit higher...
 
I suspect the 13B MSP (Renesis) engines are more efficient that the older 13B lump as well - due to the clever intake porting.

The renesis lump is 106 ;)
The engine is going to be street ported, but calculating on a std port will do for what I need at the moment ;)

The air intake manifold on the renesis includes a small supercharge effect - graphs on page 7 of this SAE paper (http://www.rotarydevelopment.net/RotDev/Docs/2004-01-1790_Rotary.pdf).
