    sorry...I should have added "with daily driven reliability". How much power can you get out of a 3 or 4 rotor? I have a hard time believing they can make more power than an LSx.

    Oh, and fuck a Dodge...

    Thank you for proving my point. Basically stock drivability on 91 octane. I bet it gets decent MPG considering the HP levels too. As far as the other video that was posted with the rotory in the BMW....lol, that [engine] setup isn't streetable for shit. Sick non the less though. That thing hooked up and dipped the fuck out.

    Yup. But I know some people with Peripheral Ported 13B-RE engines daily driven and getting 18MPG. Not sure on HP but I know dam well it's well over 850HP.

    I wasn't aware of that type of efficiency out of those engines. How often do they have to be rebuilt? What kind of money has to be spent to attain those results?

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not a rotary hater or a V8 nut swinger (ok, maybe i am lol), but just an all around automotive enthusiast. I think one of the coolest, most unique swaps was the rotary in the nova (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcGZgz0yRbg) and the 2jz in the camaro (http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...rch_type=&aq=f)

    I don't know which part of this statement is harder to believe, daily driven 13b-re with a p port or the 18mpg
