D1 - have to agree with Ross and Blitz.
 
How much power and drivability do you want?
 
Done right, they are an awesome machine.  As a daily driver - I don\'t think it is the best combination.  If you are just driving on the street of a weekend/fun car - it can be nice.  The brap brap is an attention seaker, and can be a bugger in traffic etc.
 
The right porting/turbo combination and they can be awesome to drive - low down power from the engine itself, producing just the right amount of boost down low - through to loads of power up into the top revs. But you still have to drive in a particular style due to the brap brap (which is hard on the transmission etc.).

Seems like the UK rotary world has gone bridgeport crazy! Soon everyones gonna have one.
Personally I\'d go for \'good\' street port 99% of the time.

ditto!!!:Thumbs-up

Fot the last 12 years I have driver a ROTARY as a daily driver in some form or another,to be very honest....you have to adapt your driving style to whatever combination you have.
Example one:




to example two:



to example three:



These examples are some of the combinations used,.....and this is some with and without the benifit of high tech fuel injection or turbo.It is ultimately the feel you want and the response from you car.
To be honest a big street port desires some driving ability to keep it smooth and driveable,almost the same as a lil bridge.The down side of a bridge is that you have to peddle it a bit on pull off as some of the desired \'torque\' is not there at low rpm,however once you get going it so so cool.
The street port on the other hand is easier on the pull away but loses some of that higher rpm \'grunt\' you experience on the bridge port.
With good mapping you can virtually make the car a lot easier to drive around town.........! Yes I do get a lot more attention driving the brapper than this..............

as you prob know my engine was only built about 2 months ago.  and it is being built again now, so i know what figures it is producing etc as it did get mapped before it went pop.

it is street ported (not huge, mediumish i think)  now, what difference would it make if i was to get it turned into a extend street port.

would it increase the power? bhp or acceleration?
would it shorten engine life?
what difference would it make to the drive, bareing in mind this is my only car at the moment.

oldone- i want a pink block like in example 2

Any increase in port size will give you the benifit of increased horsepower and performance.Porting your motor,in my opinion does not shorten the life span UNLESS it is a radical race motor and abused as such !! If it is your daily driver then more care and attention should be given to it on a daily basis.In saying that,any motor built with \'love and attention\' will last a long time...:InLove :yes

Im the only eccentric hippie allowed to have that colour........LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOOO:bandit
