George sounds like a great price.  I am now looking for an engine to

'play'

with. It would be a shame if I destroyed a new engine though.  Paul tell

me

again why I shouldn't be pushing a two rotary engine up to or over

300Hp?

Is it a simple reason like lack of longevity? To much heat in a small
package?  Better to tune down the 20B?

Well it takes a turbo and as you can tell we are now having problems
with our long term turbo's. Until a solution presents itself it looks like

about 220

HP flat rated is going to be the best we can do until the turbo RX8 engine
hits the market. It will also take awhile for that to be tested as well.
Looks like a three rotor turbo is you best bet for around 300 HP flat

rated

currently.

Doug,
Yep 186 KW or 250 hp for  the 6 port manual renesis n/a - so I'm quoted !

HOWEVER what about a P-Port Renesis - I think I calculated a 55 degree
leeway before overlap with the Renesis side exhaust port. That goes a long
way in taming the idle of a renesis P-port .
Can anybody hazard a guess of the P-port gain here, it may put you up to the
300 hp mark your looking for.

As an added bonus you could also more easily clear a flooded engine with
P-Port.
