Ed,
Sounds like a must-have program if you are contemplating a turbo
installation.
I'm surprised it works correctly with 80 CID plugged in.  One of the few
things I have agreed with Paul Lamar on is that the 13B is equivalent to a
160 CI 4 cyl piston engine in terms of CFM of intake & exhaust volume.
Perhaps the program is aware of the characteristics of the rotary and knows
this relationship?
