I'm not usually a big sticker person(small amount of decals-ok), but when I originally wanted the 20B, I wsa gonna get the "2 Litre V8 Beater" sticker for the back. Guys with V8 over here have stickers like "Only milk and juice comes in 2 Litres".

Milk and juice still takes iron out to a scrap bin tho.

Yeah, they have "2.0 Litres of milk still gets sour" stickers to get them back or some **** like that anyway.

It would at least be different

I was thinking of a custom tubular intake and reworking the ACV setup to something

different but still smoggable. I also need to figure out some injector thoughts.

This may sound crazy, but I'm thinking of a "Direct Injection" type of setup. I'll

try to create something visual to explain later. I figure if the fuel is injected after

the exhaust port is closed, then little or no unburned fuel goes out the ehhaust.



Just a thought

I look forward to seeing that.

If you can solve the overlapping problem of the ports (like they did with the renesis), you'll save fuel and have better emmissions.

a renisance renesis...



I was thinking that under boost, with direct injection, there would only be air

transfering to the exhaust during overlap. A healthy dose of oxygen going to

the catalyst would help in the further reduction of emissions. And, as an added

bonus, I can keep the proper air fuel ratio without losing any fuel during overlap.

Which equals more power with the same economy!!



Another beautiful thing about the rotary is the area of injection isn't under the

temperatures and pressures of combustion. So no need for special injectors.

So you would just tap into the housing and make a custom rail or something? That would be good. Is that for the "tired" 12a?

I never thought of adding a rail to the stock intake.That would work if regulated good.Just means the carbs only function would be to cut off the air supply.
