Rotary Engine Porting

Exhaust Porting

Lets not forget porting the exhaust also; we tend to not talk about it as much.  In general when porting the exhaust they should be about 70-80% the size of the intakes.  Although if your running nitrous oxide you’ll want to go close to 100-110% of the intake size.  The exhaust port sleeves need to remain, except for 1974 rotor housings. 

Unfortunately some of the new NA rotor housings have a baffled sleeve that is difficult to remove.  So replacing those with turbo rotor housings are preferred.  The exhaust porting in conjunction with the intake porting will have a tremendous impact on your engine’s power band.  The rounder the boarder the torque curve will be, while a more square design increases noise.

so what your saying is the rounder port gives a more boarder torque but the square design just increases noise but no power so which is best and why?
