Something new for ripping to bit\'s!

Some very cool stuff. Possibly something worth looking at. If you could get a 3d template printed off a Z-corp printer for a aluminium manifold with the TB built in .If it could be broken in to 3 then it would help and wouldn\'t make it silly money.

You could possibly do the same with the manifold too with a sand casting mould.

Some seriously interesting stuff.

Oops, I\'m a design engineer using SolidEdge 20 and am currently investigating a 3d printer for work :Giggle However the one we want doesn\'t use the casting media !

Hi Shaun,
I must have a word with you.

The car is very quick and very nice to drive,most fun I have had for a while.
Had it up to 7000 rpm a couple of day\'s ago,it\'s got so much useable torque that I keep looking  for another 2 gears!
Regards

Will be good to see a RX7 in the UK drifting scene as I don\'t think I\'ve seen one yet :confused:

Take a look in the 2nd gen section :Giggle

Hi Carl

What sort of power output could one expect from a 13b PP NA using s5 rotors (lightened) and all supporting mods running on carbs? Also how streetable could this setup be made (in terms of economy, noise, idle and driveability)

[BlitzBoy]

about 250 bhp-300 on PP but the power band will be very high up so you will need to rev it not very streetable as they will hardly any power at low revs, plus the idle will be high eg 2K rpm. Its a race car set up 13b PP NA so forget fuel economy

Carl, hats off to you mate as you\'re certainly not afraid to explore and experiment in the rotary engine.  Do you think that if Mazda got their act together, what with the now reliable Renesis engine, better fuel consumption compared to the twin turbo that its something they might explore ? Just thinking back to the good old days when Mercedes adopted a triple rotor unit it for their C111.

[Carl]

No horsepower figures as yet.
Will put them up when we dyno it.
Since this is the first one we have built all I can say is that I am very pleased with it.
Regards
Carl

Hoping it won\'t be the last Looking forward to seeing how it does on a dyno !
