I wanted to add this, in regards to overlap, the most power I ever made with a rotary was running a port with huge overlap, a bridgeport is like runner cam with 300 deg at .50...Works great with a big turbine wheel.
I got the parts in for my next 2 rotor, its peripheral port turbo motor, in effect the intake and the exhaust never close. Its really interesting, the intakes are milled in, but the exhaust is bone stock, because Mazda incorporates an anti-reversion step in the exhaust port for turbo motors... Most rotary builders grind it out, not having the faintest of clues of why its there or what its for, but they see it as flow restriction so out it goes, and the power band gets cut down..
You've given me some inspiration though, when i am done moving house and shop at the end of summer, I am going to embark on a twin turbo D-150 build with a big block...


HAHA
Ive got a few big blocks laying around.
Mopower for my ford f100?
Id like to stick the turbo in the bed and use a scavenge pump to send the oil back to the pan.

Chinese turbos have stepped up their game JUST LIKE THE CYLINDER HEAD castings have done.

Custom orders from people who know what they are doing bringing them to the forefront.
