Subject: Low compression RX8 rotors

Possible method for lowering the compression
ratio on RX8 rotors for turbo charging.

Problem with turbo RX8 engines so far is Mazda has not
made a turbo version so low compression ratio rotors 
are unavailable.

Chamfering around the combustion chamber seems to be the
method shown here.
