That’s what you want to see when u spend thousands of dollars to make a small engine generate so much power…

Like a trophy if you know what I mean.

As long as you know what you’re doing, you wont blow it up. At least initially.

when metal goes from hot to cold often, it gets brittle, that’s what I meant. Take a (chemistry?) class.

You’re telling people to take a class and you can’t even tell them what class it would be. Doh!

im not doubting that the motor is powerFULL, i just doubt its really 1600hp. rotorys are notorius for seal failures and could never even hold 500hp without blowing out like a lightbulb. show me the actual reading for me to believe it. i never see a rotory beat even a supra or stang, hard to buy into the whole 1600hp crap video with the poorly designed motor.

Agreed, I can’t stand these people who think their Rotary engines are better than everything else/, my mate who imports Mazda parts says the rotary is one of the most unreliable auto parts available.

ya im with you on the fact most of them blow out seals alot and run like ****. not saying for 100% this is makin that hp but nor would i dought it. because this is a quad rotar these are not designed for cars realy there motors for small aircraft. but alot of there issues are worked out now. same with a dsm your hearing alot of what happend 10 years ago still. but look fastest 4banger is a dsm pushin 1600hp. again not sayin it does have that hp but it could

in theory rotary are great buy they suffer from so many weaknesses, my biggest problem however is the sound nothing beats the sound of a v8, just love them. but rotary are good if we can fix them, i don’t see why we don’t use quad rotary more, they are good. but personally i want to see the old school rotary make a return, you know the kind you see on wwii planes that have 5 pistons in a star formation they can be really efficient and you can stack them most ive seen is 20 piston crazy stuff
