I was at a local shop a while back where they specialize in rotaries and they were building a 3 rotor for a guy. While I was there they had it putting out 500+ horsepower before they even put the twin turbos on. sick stuff and nice vid

Ah methanol 20b engine.. NICE! the mask is for methanol is poison to breath. Love the tech in rotary: Few moving part, easy to maintain. high power output. Horse power is more fun than torque.

haha I know, right? Still love it though :-) That thing has intense top end.

Sounds like a weed wacker on roids

2.0L its a 20b

This is a 20B rotary, not a 13b (as stated in the description... "3rotor PP turbo"). The 20B displaces 2.0L.

Also, the reason why you didn't hear the rpms go very high is because once the turbos spooled, it ran through the gear too fast. If you go to their website, there's a lot more videos of the car. Just go to Customers, then drag racing, and then Dennis Marquis.

XD Wankel Rotary engine is german. So its not relative to rice.

what is with the driver's gas mask!? Creepy

Its a six speed.

In the 80s and 90s I was involved in scca roadracing and traveled to many r aces. I watched countless stock style coupes powered by rotary engines tha t flat tore up the track . I think they were" rx3 sp "cars. At t he gt-1 sedan races ,all of the fastest cars were 5.0 or 5.7 V8 muscle an d these cars thundered. The Dynan BMW's sounded bas a s s but could not ca tch v8 trans am type cars. I now ,older ,own an old car with a roller bi g glock with nitrous. My daily driver is a 16g -92 talon. The talon is fu n ,.but the falcon is scary fast. I know the littl talon can be pumped to the tens, but not for 6 years with normal maintenance and no breakage. A well put togher station wagon engine will make an easy, long running 10 sec street car. Any time of day at any moment. Just turn stuff on -click 'and nail it , Takes the talon that long to spool up. No contest. For real .
