I thought I'd show you some 4 port vs 6 port pics, lest you think I've totally lost it. Paul. Thanks for the pics though. It's nice to see that mazda has not discarded the 6 port design. I just hope I don't have to wait too long to actually see this engine in action. |

I could see it on the other thread you posted.. it certainly does look like, from the picture you posted, that it's a 4 port and the AUX port is blocked.. But you're still crazy, and you never share enough good info with those of us from texas ;)

What we need is more rotard pr0n...
Wonder if we can get a close up shot...something with a flash into the port area... |
It definitely looks like a 4 port with the aux ports blocked off. However, could it be that they just showed the 4 port config for the AT cars (as it's similar to the current 4 port design), and that there may still be a 6 port coming for the MT cars?

Interesting. So are they going to do a 4 and a 6 port on this engine too? Perhaps? It confuses me to see this though as they dumped the 4 port 13B Renesis.

1) The engine cannot rev higher than 7500rpm, hence the 4 port. 2) They will turbo this to put in a MS8 and 4 port works better 3) The ports are large enough to breath to 8500rpm 4) 4 port engine is lighter I would like to see a 6port available tho. If the engine makes ~265hp@7000rpm, its gonna make a lot more at 8500rpm. If the ports are large enough to breath to 8500rpm, 2 extra ports mean more power at ~10000+rpm, assuming the exhaust ports can handle the flow. However it is only applicable in a race car, as either option would take the engine out of factory suggested limits for a production car. Although an engine that makes 265hp@7000rpm is much better than 265hp@8500rpm, I personally would prefer the higher revving engine. A 6-port engine that makes 265hp@8500rpm that could flow more would be perfect. So the aftermarket can unlock more hp at higher rpm , and we can use that power at our own risks. ________ LIVE SEX WEBSHOWS |

Whether we will (Australia) see the 6 port/speed Auto in the new model next year is yet to be confirmed. I do not think even the UK has had the 6 speed/port Auto. |

Maybe release the 4 port first for the RX-8 and then the 6 port with the following vehicle. Why would they do that? Maybe they know how weak the RX-8 transmission is?
My thoughts: 4 port for the AT and the 6 port for the MT, also we will see a new Tranny. Thats my 2nd prediction:smoker: |
4 port is lightter and sympler for a small light weight car?
6 port more power more complex for a larger more heavy car? maybe they got what they wanted out of a 4 port engine? I think this is positive, if they got 20% more power and torque from a 4 port imagine what they can get out of a 6 port |

Any Admin or Mod want to combine these 2 threads. It's a bit annoying.

Yes - we need more info about the dry twin clutch 7-speed power shift setup for sure!

I know why it is a 4 port
the car that this is going to be in does not have enough space for the 6 port intake manifold, the engine is going to be almost between the driver and passenger |
