basically take out the back seats and put some type of platform in where the seats used to cover the trunk, then cover that platform with the same fabric as the floor to use as sound dampening, so it can still be used as a DD. i dont plan on putting in a roll cage.

What is this about? Only a 20% increase. I expected a little more, but then again it is only ^.3 http://news.windingroad.com/car-buyi...s-16x-renesis/
Prediction : Mazda will bring this motor to the rx8 in 2008 with a claim of 300hp . A year or two later the RX8club.com will be alive with talk of why they can only get 240hp at the wheels and "lets take a class action suit against Mazda" for misrepresenting the power output .

How can you be so sure its a 4port? You are seeing the intermediate plate, not the side plates, there are 2 holes there on the side plates per rotor, making it a 6 port.
The exhaust ports have an interesting shape, its almost looks like a ported port.
edit: Sorry Paul, you are right. It is a 4 port.

From all the information we have so far, the exterior dimensions is the same as the 13B-MSP, except it is shorter (front to back, longitudinal)

Sounds like it's "production ready". Mazda could be out doing endurance testing with this engine under our noses as I type this - especially if it can drop right into a RX-8.
