I hate to always be the skeptic, but I don't quite understand wanting to PP a Renesis.  The engine is already capable of peak power at higher RPM's than any of us want to run.  To me, that means it already has good intake timing, and plenty of intake port flow.  What's to be gained with this PP exercise?  Are you trying to boost HP at lower rpms that we would run at?  That sure doesn't sound like a typical PP justification.

That is exactly what will happen. The p port will deliver more HP at the same RPM. While P ports can run very high rpm, they are quite efficient throughout the rpm range. Jerry
