interuption here: i followed along and get the point and pros of this, but do you need to disable your OMP to run premix? or can you run them to gether? also, do you just plug something to disable the OMP? or is there more to it than that?

Lethal - You can run both. There are block off plates for removel if you choose that route.
FC maniac - I was using standard premix myself at first.
The best you can do is research yourself.
I have talked to people about Amsoil and they said you can actually pre-mix less of their product because it is so efficient.
Here is the Amsoil product I use:

Pettit Racing spent a lot of money developing their Protek. It is very expensive, $50 a gallon. When my brother worked there he told me they needed a computer monitor. I had an extra 15" flatscreen in my office so I traded for it. Is it better than Amsoil? I dont know like I said before it was developed with the rotary in mind so I am going with it.

Why do we recommend the use of Protek-R in every tank of fuel? The following is a reprint of the label on the 4 oz bottle of Protek-R:

Protek-R
Synthetic Fuel Lubricant
Protek-R is specially designed for use in Rotary Engines. Protek-R is an advanced high performance synthetic lubricity system which contains precision engineered lubricating molecules that help protect Rotary Engines from the damaging effects of molecular shearing and metal to metal contact. Regular use of Protek-R's superior formula has the following advantages:
- Reduced wear on rotor housings and side housings
- Clean Burn Technology reduces carbon and residue build-up
- Ashless, No smoke formula provides cleaner exhaust than 2-stroke oil
- Anti-Oxidation protection against fuel system rust and corrosion
- Low flash point helps stop plug fouling
DIRECTIONS:
Add Protek-R to tank before adding fuel using the following formula:
STREET: Minimum of one 4-oz bottle per full 12 gallon tank
RACE: Mix at Ratio 100:1
NET 4 FL. OZ.

From Page 28 of Rotary Power, our 1st and 2nd Generation RX-7 Performance Parts Catalog:
Rotary Engine Tech Tip
The rotary's oil injection system operates like this: Oil is fed via the engine oiling system (crankcase) to a variable ratio metering pump. From there, it is routed to the engine where it trickles in, partially mixing with the onrushing air-fuel mixture. Fuel-to-oil ratios of 400:1 and higher are common. With over 20 years of rotary experience, we have seen the harsh effects of insufficient lubrication on the delicate internal components of rotary engines. To add to this condition, fuel is of the unleaded variety and designed to CLEAN. High combustion temperatures produced by rotary engines break down the oil film, then today's super fuels finish the job, leaving internal components, i.e. apex seals, side seals, corner seals, etc, void of lubrication. As a result, friction and wear increase, performance and efficiency decrease. Because of this, Protek-R was developed. By adding only 4 ounces to the average fill-up of 15 gallons of fuel, the fuel-to-oil ratio is improved by 100%, bringing the ratio to 200:1 or better. Protek-R can extend rotary engine life by 30% or more, depending on your driving habits and consistency of use.
- Extends engine life
- Reduces internal friction and wear
- Less drag and more power
- Full protection against rust and corrosion
- Blends completely with fuel
- Easier starting
- Carbon free
- 100% synthetic
