RX7 housing in a Renesis

RX7 housing in a Renesis
My engine is probably on its last legs. I already bought a 6 port to replace my current 4 port and I want to make it special.
I was wondering if I could use a RX7 housing. Reason being the peripheral exhaust port. As I thought that more exhaust flow is better (I read that the exhaust ports on the Renesis are rather restrictive). Obviously I need a custom exhaust flange and fill in the water seal grooves on either the side or the rotor housing.
Is it apart from these things possible to use a RX7 housing and will it provide any benefit?

Been covered many times, you can search for those threads. The long and short of it is it's a major project that will ultimately produce less power than a renesis unless you also turbo it. The peripheral ports produce entirely different timing and if you don't also seal the side ports you have really wacky timing.
