I'm not aware of anyone who's done the setup on a rotary. I've seen numerous remote mount jobs on various trucks, corvettes, TA's and they all put out some nice power. And despite what you think, the one's I've seen are no slower spooling then a poorly tuned "regular" single on our cars.

IMO - it'll work. It'll work well. But it has its purpose, which is to fit a turbo or turbos where you normally can't (ever seen a C5 or C6 engine bay?) and on our cars there's plenty of real estate to fit a turbo.

That said though i'm all for uniqueness...with a proerply sized turbine and housing you'll have a decent setup. Plumbing, shielding, etc will take alot of thinking but it can be done.
