When you think about it it makes sense. Lower boost should work. A 300 HP RX-8.....hmmm.. now you have my attention.

it should be 300 @ 5psi lol [/quote]

425 Rear wheel camel power @20inches of vacuum!

imagine the low end power of a high compression engine that is boosted to 10lbs? a 13b with some torque https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

also, from what i have read..... the rotors are interchangable with previous rotary engine rotors... so if youreally want low compression they're easily available

The way the new rotors are desgined is they hold unburned gas inside and release it in the next intake cycle...i read that in the the new road and track or car and driver RX8 magazine they sent me.



I guess that was for fuel economy...

they redesigned the ports so that unburnned fuel is brought back into the intake.



they redesigned the rotors to be light weight, but it should be the same shape as the previous rotors.
