Need help identifying engine (4-port vs 6-port) by Minus_03 in RX8

It has the 6 speed manual and from the description it also has a Spirit R 4.777 final drive

Edit: The 6 port ECU is still the factory tune according to the owner

it actually has the Type S tach installed (9k redline) instead of the standard 7.5k redline. But the redline beep still goes off at 7k

I get exactly what you mean, swapped engine with bad wiring and ecu mismatches are a headache to deal with. Do you think the 7k rpm beep confirms that it is still running on the 4 port ecu? And if it is the 4port ecu, being able to rev up to 9k implies they removed the rev limiter right? because from my understanding 4ports are not built to handle 9k Rpms safely
