Yeah, I'm not sure why they didn't do both intake and exhaust ports on the side from the start. They obviously figured out that a side intake port increases engine power at low revs as well as fuel economy, why not make the exhaust a side port for the same reasons? If they would have done that back in the 80's, maybe they would have never stopped rotary production.
Not that I'm complaining too much, obviously peripheral port exhaust makes a good location for a turbo or two... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |
hhmmm..... may have to look more into the RX8...... still want my FD though! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

FD :bigok:[/quote] It's been proven that peripheral intake ports make more power than side ports. The same will probably be true for the exhaust ports. Who gives a damn about fuel economy and emmissions? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |

They should change the name of the motor. Renesis sounds too gay. |

We could take a page out of the honda book and call it a 13R. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png |
Well right now the 13b has more potential but if an aftermarket forms for the RX8 who knows skies the limit

Hello everyone, new member here. anyways,
I've read that Mazda engineer knew that side ports would be better over all and they have tried it in the past. But that was in the old days with the carburated engines, and the side ports kept on clogging up. Since then, they put it aside for the current configuration. Now, with the electronic fule injections and other new technologies available, the renesis is possible. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/angry.png -Funk 94' Silver Touring. |
