If you have an RX8 engine and you don't want to take it apart for a p-port and you don't mind giving up 50 HP you can get this intake flange from:

      Very beautifully made part! Does somebody know about a way to obtain the side and central plates of an RX-8, to transform a 13B into Peripheral Port intake, Side exahust?
   Probably, housings would need being changed too, as this arrangement in a 13B would leave the peripheral exhaust ports without any function but acting as undesirable dead space.
    Any ideas about this welcome. Thanks. Regards. Salut †

Jose,
            Not sure but I think Rohan Ambrose of xtreme rotaries in Calum Downs (Melbourne Aust)  makes the side plates but out of Aluminium. The
plates have a cast insert to take the wear.   There is another bloke in
Brisbane, but sadly I cannot recommend him which is a pity,

Neil.



Hi Neil,
   I guess you are talking about Billet in Brisbane, why can't you recommend him, from what I have seen his work looks OK but expensive. By the way how is the gearbox coming along, Mine is stalled at the moment due to other commitments.

Chris.
