I think that the biggest problem that the weight will cause you is the speed that the actuators can open the 6PI. You may notice that your ports open at a higher RPM point than they did previously (there is really nothing wrong with this).
Revving a rotary is fun for a reason, it helps keep carbon to a minimum and it uses the 6PI system, which keeps it from seizing and beginning the carbon-buildup scenario.

Because I don't put too many miles on the vert anymore, I think that it will not be too much trouble/hassle to check the ports every 20K miles or so. If they seem sluggish or frozen, I will remove/clean/replace them.
