At higher RPMs. Also Pports will idle just fine. Good balance and vibration control are the key to good idle. The engine won't make a lot of power at low rpm but that isn't a problem for an aircraft. The rotary makes a better aircraft engine than a car engine!

Bob,
One thing that everyone should get clear is that for aircraft PPorts are al= most always superior. At higher RPMs. Also Pports will idle just fine. Good= balance and vibration control are the key to good idle. The engine won'= ;t make a lot of power at low rpm but that isn't a problem for an aircr= aft. The rotary makes a better aircraft engine than a car engine!

I understand the benefits of P porting the engine.=C2=A0 And I think I know= the answer to my question but thought I'd verify.

Looking for 180-200 hp.=C2=A0 I have a freshly overhauled 2004 4 port 13b.<= br> If the intake and exhaust are built right I should have no problem getting = that power NA.

If I P port the intake it will be easier to make 200 or more. however it is= just easier to get air into the engine, and therefore more fuel. But it is= not by any means more fuel efficient?

So therefore if I don't need the power I don't need to P port.

Mark
