Does anyone know the IO/IC and size and HP of the factory P-port.
 
Lynn, does the timing given, calculated by the rotor uncovering and covering the port, or the side seal uncovering/covering the port opening?
I was thinking the RX8 rotor will be slightly different (bigger) with the harased edges.

I only have 12A stuff, but here you are:
 
Intake port at the manifold.    1.695" Round
 
Exhaust port at the manifold  1.645" Round
 
IO  86 Degrees BTDC
IC  75 Degrees ABDC
EO 73 Degrees BBDC
EC 65 Degrees ATDC
 
A Racing Beat Street Port:
 
IO  25 Degrees ATDC
IC  60 Degrees ABDC
EO 84 Degrees BBDC
EC 48 Degrees ATDC
 
In side port engines, it is the rotor closing the port.
In the peripheral port engines it is the apex seal closing the port. Actually the port is timed by the apex seal.
The port never closes in the way the side port engine has the rotor blank off the port in operation.
So, the Pport can flow way more than the side port, even with smaller runners and ports.
