      I agree, he's building his rotary the way I would. I haven't gone turbo with mine yet but my N/A build shares a lot of similarities and if/when I go turbo, this is how it's gonna get done. Keep the primary injectors for drive-ability, small quick spooling turbo, clean up all the emissions stuff, etc.

      The best part of Rotaries besides the compact block is that we can make them flow air like a V6 just by porting. If you want to make torque on a rotary just change your turbo setup or add spray, the V8 guys run turbo and nos so why not us. Also don't forget that back in the day the banned Full Peripheral port motors because of the unfair amount of power they were making for their classes ☝🏿

      @@josephsamsor1698 You do realize a ls weighs almost the same and sits far back near firewall so really you have great weight distribution and a reliable engine with parts that are dirt cheap.

      @josephsamsor1698 4 года назад

      Intoeverything I never said it’s worse. The person I was speaking too clearly thought it was a bad option, even though it’s a great option in about every way. For me personally, a well built k series is cooler in a rx7 than an ls but both are good. Personally I’d want to stay rotary since it’s such an expensive car in the first place.

    Something that I see, You mentioned the Phelonic spacers keeping the heat out of the fuel rail which is very smart. However then your routing your fuel line right on top of the engine. I would suggest heat wrapping the Fuel Lines or trying to re route them so they aren't heat soaking on top of the engine. Just my 2 Cents. Love his build series!

    Guys, that EFR7670 0.92 A/R will top out before 6750 RPM as EMAP starts to overwhelm it. You'll be running a TON of backpressure by 10k RPM. Realistically your needs would have been best met by an EFR 8374/8474 with an external wastegated (dual 40 or 44mm) on the 1.05 A/R housing. For anyone reading this, larger porting = more sensitive to backpressure. Larger turbine wheels are necessary comparatively to a reciprocating engine.

    Looks like a good build. The 7670 will start to run out of steam at about 6500 RPM. If you want 10,000 RPM and to actually make power after c.7500 RPM then you'll want s much bigger turbo like the 9180, 9280 or even the big hp maker S472/S475. Granted those won't deliver the same type of response and those turbos are built for 600+ hp.
