https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png nope don't like it, he could have had a faster car by using a 20b. or building a good REW, but I guess he just didn't want to do any research on the rotary and just figured he be a retard and destroy another 7 with an ls1 swap.

I agree. You get used to the distinct sound of a rotary. Seeing an FD and hearing a V8 is like seeing a hot chick with a mans voice.

I don't think you can say a women with a mans voice...because I love the way both of them sound

That launch at 5,500 RPM wasn't that impressive. I agree that a 20B would have been better. They sound better too. http://www.geocities.com/cd23c/sounds.html



He went from a turbo to NA. Isn't that a step in the wrong direction? I guess it's sort of a given going from rotors to pistons, but there are V8 turbo kits out there. Better yet, SC kits... maybe I shouldn't encourage him.



Heh, his nifty coil-on-plug action can't make up for the fact that it takes 8 pistons to accomplish what two rotors can do (albeit forced induction on two rotors, but at least COP is not required lol).

I wish I had coil on plug ignition

I would rather fab in a whipple twin screw compressor onto the REW block than mess around with the LS1. An autorotor, whipple, or lysholm will make the wankel drive like a V8, but keep the rotary sound and add a sort of jet engine whine sound on top of it.
