lol, poor 8s

Here is my club's best 8, 350whp and won MOTM last year

yep, plus its a 1.8L smaller then us

try 1.3.

but displacement really doesn't mean the same thing on a rotary... seeing as it uses it completely differently than a piston engine. the rotors turn at 1/3 the speed of the excentric shaft (equivalent to a driveshaft) so at 9000 RPM the rotor is only spinning at 3000... thus... low torque.
 
its not all about just power...

no, they handle awesome... on par with the MSP outa the box... and considering the size of em... not bad. I'd say they're after about the same niche as the MSP honestly... but thats prb because if I could I'd upgrade to one. lol
 
Nope 1.3L

Maybe if they upped the rotor speed ratio a little it would be more torque.

I guess they don't because the seals wear out? and it might sling itsself to pieces?
 
i think thats because the explosion in side the motor is no were near as powerful as in a piston engine. thus there is lower gear ratio to counteract the lack of power. Right?
 
Alright, just got off the phone about the msp. Gonna go for a test drive tomorrow.

It's bone stock oher than autometer boost gauge, oil pressure, and wieband.

68k miles and no smoking or leaking. Rubber hoses were replaces with silicone when they bought it in 06. No boost spikes above 7 ever. It did have a vac leak At 15 at idle and only 4 on the throttle about a yeR ago and it hasn't doneit again since. Tires are a few months old. Brakes were done up front last month andhe has the rear pads.

They are asking 8 for it.

I will have pics tomorrow
 
If you get it, you gonna change the LSD or wait for it to bust?

Leave it till it busts. lol

Then i'll get it one welded

I only plan on doing FMIC with hard pipes, BOV, 626 IM, SS AFC, and CS Jpipe back exhaust

i think the LSD will survive
