I know that some of you want to see a vid of the engine running but at the time I was to busy to take one.Sorry about that,but when you are trying to be hands on it is hard to do more than one thing at once.
When we run it again I will do one.
Needless to say it sounds rather nice.
Kind regards
Carl


Hello Carl

Look forward to seeing a video as well, you have one very exciting project in the works...

hey there carl.

congratulations on getting the 4 rotor up and running. i\'ll have to make time during the summer when i\'m back from sea to come and see it.

have you managed to get your new premises up and running yet.

the car is still running great, but getting to many ideas on what to do next with it.

Hi Guy\'s,
A bit of an update on the car since this thread has been brought back to life again.
I am working on the car still down at my workshop,and hope to get it to "Rotorstock" but am planning to be running it before then too.
The engine has been running for quite a while but there are lots of things that take alot of time on a job like this,and some of it is unknown territory so I am having to try things out to make sure they work.
The car is fully caged but needs to be painted and there is quite a bit of bodywork to be done before that.
There are a few other mods that I need to do as well,but you  can be pretty sure of one thing, I have one of the loudest rotaries you will ever hear!! If you have not heard a rotary that is not silenced before and is running N/A then you will be very suprised at how loud it is, this is one of the reasons for building the car. It is a sound that once heard is never forgotten!
Regards
Carl

I am very curious to see what kind of mileage you get.  I remember we spoke about the pros and cons of a p-port NA 4 rotor vs a 20b with FI over the phone.  I purchased a D-series 20b shortly after that conversation.  However, after watching/listening to a couple more 4-rotor videos I\'m having second thoughts.
