Marc,

                   Cannot answer your question as you are in the states. 
BUT--- had an interesting talk with a bloke yesterday doing turbos on 
renesis engine at up to 8 pound boost.  As I suspected the P port give 
little extra HP possibly 20 Max and cost $1000 plus having to change all 
the plumbing,  A turbo  with all stock plumbing ( not exactly) but with 
minor mods  gives twice the torque and up to 285 HP.  This is on his 
dyno and a modified mazda ECU.  I will be calling in to discuss when in 
Brisbane, as this alters all the expectations of the Rotary.  Cost at 
the end of the day??? TBA as usual, but makes P porting look sad on 
performance. However cost and weight are to be taken into account as 
usual. For a start an ECU will cost $3000 these days.

Neil.
