I love the project, sad thing is a little 2.1 lt 4cyl turbo (like Toyota 3SGTE) will make about 200+bhp more have much more mid range power, and be as if not more reliable.

Fantastic project though

hmmm would have to see that to believe it. 3Sgte.... I've never seen anything great come from one. I'm shooting for 600-700rwhp, so what 800-900rwhp 3sgte can spool up at 5k making power to 11k?

And thanks

IMSA had rev limits of 9000rpm, but from 5000rpm to 9000rpm it had 90% of its maximum power, something no NA motor can hope to do... power is what is important that is what does work and moves a car

Have a look 2.1lt 3S-GTE motor, single turbo raced at this race with a minimum of 850bhp and made that over a very wide rev range (note with inlet restrictor !!!) >

Ran rings around the 4 rotor @ Daytona 24hr (a year later from this video) and passed them like they were standing still @ Delmar street race final in 1992, in endurance events it was un beatable.... and reliable too (24 hour wins and 12 hour wins)

I hope you make a much more powerful version than the R26B as in the IMSA car with a muffler attached (that would pass the 108dB track side limit) it was a fucking turd! with only around 600bhp to 610bhp available quoted to me from Mazda NA directly.. this is v's the 680bhp run at LeMans.

Seeing is believing NA Rotaries are shit sad to say And turbo ones can never be made durable at the power a little 4 cylinder is proven to make.
This little 3S-GTE motor still holds lap records 20 years on! and it was durable and fast. Street track beat all comers 6.5lt chev Intrepids, 7lt Jags @ Sebring, you name it, Toyota OWNED it.
4 rotor was no where.
