Jerry,

Here's the latest - my design for the Rx8 P-Port.

It is a bridged P-port as the Rx8 apex seals are very narrow and flexible -
not to be used with P-exhaust housings , for obvious reasons.

The green circle is your 1.6 PP.

Suddenly there is a lot of interest in P ports.  I think at least 6
different versions are being built or at least dreamed about.  There is
one mentioned yesterday on the other list that will basically be a race
engine:  300 hp at 9000 rpm!!  Trouble with that number is that it does
not compute.  I think 400 hp at 9000 rpm would be more like it.  This
is a different world from the wimpy little 220 hp at 6000 rpm engine I
am building.

     Anyway, last week I posted a drawing of the intake plenum I planned
to build but since then it has gotten a lot better. Here is the new
version.  The air filter goes where the alternator was located on the
stock engine.       Jerry
