Paul, is there an equivalence calculation between turbo boost in pounds, and increased exhaust temperature? In other words, what are the peak exhaust temps over 1700deg /F/ that I will have to deal with. Thanks

Fundamental law of physics.

(P1 V1 )/T1 = (P2 V2 )/T2

Pressure, volume, temperate.

The rotary will put out 1800 F to 1900 F right at the peripheral exhaust port on gasoline.
The side exhaust port RX8 will be  up to 200 F lower. The extra energy goes into
the RX8 cooling system.

You don't have to locate the turbo there. If you mount the turbo behind the engine
the exhaust manifold will radiate some heat and loose a little energy in the
process with the above equation. You can even water cool the exhaust
manifold and use a cheaper turbo :-)
