Buy an RB system then or buy a RB header and build your own out of Magnaflow pieces

If cash is the biggest hold up at this point than you shouldn't be buying parts. If you cut corners buying parts, you'll end up spending twice as much in the long run after you realize that the cheap parts you bought are cheap and you want to swap them out and buy the more expensive parts.

SASE? Clarification? lol As for the "cheap" parts, thats one reason i asked. if its junk, i'll wait and get the good stuff

i've learned with my DD project that cheap isn't always better

Ak, bought and read a REALLY GOOD book on rotaries from amazon (Street Rotary HP1549: How to Build Maximum Horsepower & Reliability into Mazda's 12a, 13b & Renesis Engines (Paperback)) and have a few more questions specifically regarding porting the 6-port.

I have only been able to find a "street-port" template for the 6-port. Is it feasible to do a half bridge of sorts on the 6-port? i.e. retain the street port on the primaries and secondaries but put a bridge on the aux ports? Would this help any on an N/A motor retaining the aux port sleeves and actuations? Also, what sort of effect would this have on the powerband? broaden the top end more? and a related question would be, when running a ported motor like this and a standalone like MS, where would i have to set the rev limit as a ballpark number? 8000?

If the above is NOT a good idea, what are some other things that can be done for power improvements on a 6-port specifically regarding porting?

Keep in mind, this is intended to me a mid N/A build with the eventual addition of a mild boost setup on S4/S5 hybrid N/A motor...
