We were talking about this last night...



When a 13b spits an apex seal, the chunks are more-or-less forced out the exhaust right away, but with a rennie, the seal chunks are more likely to make a couple of revolutions before coming out the side.

thats true, i hadnt thought of that. thats a good reason why the renesis wont be a good candidate for FI except for the people who can take the risk of having to replace the turbo, housing, and rotor everytime you blow a seal. With the previous engines you at least have a chance of not trashing everything.
