the supra is way too heavy for a rotary they make loads of power but no torque and you need torque to get 3400lbs going the great thing about rotary engines is that they rev out to 12-13k or higher very easily and make power straight through the rpm range but at like 1000hp theyll make about 400ftlbs or less

hmm fullthrottle we should patent an idea of combing the toque of an piston engine and the HP of a rotary, like a hybrid lol

now that i think about it, that would be AWESOME...your have the best torque and HP with an high redline

anyone here has a masters degree in mechanical engineering?

only thing ive ever seen a rotary good in besides an rx7-8 is a suzuki samurai i know a guy running a rx7 turbo engine and trans in his it runs awesome but only because hes running 1st gear=3.5 tcase 4-1 tcase 4-1 axles 5.13 thats a very low ratio final drive of 287-1 but he can run 1st gear through 12k so it actually gets up and goes lol helps that a sami only weighs like 1500 lbs

Ive built a couple rx7 in my day... And by all means... your comment.

But... one mans word of mouth wont speak... so ill show u different with the internet... wikipedia
The 13B-DEI was turbocharged in 1986. It features the newer four-injector fuel injection of the 6PI engine, but lacks that engine's eponymous variable intake system. In '86-'88 engines the twin-scroll turbocharger is fed using a two-stage mechanically actuated valve, however on '89-'91 engines a better turbo design was used with a divided manifold powering the twin-scroll configuration. For engines manufactured between '86-'88 output is rated at 185 hp (138 kW) at 6500 rpm and 248 N·m (183 ft·lbf) at 3500 rpm.
