       Hey Paul,

       I sent this before and you didn't post it up. I don't know if
   you lost
       it or just didnt want to put it up. Either way here is another
   try at
       it. As far as I know this is the most powerful  normal rotor(645cc)
       sized engine ever. Looks like the two studs for exhaust aren't
   enough
       clamping pressure.I saw on your site that the 800 three rotor
   utilized
       four smaller exhaust studs. Is this a problem that these engines run
       into when really pushed?

       Sorry Rob. I don't think I got it. Earthlink is not the most
       reliable ISP. They just sent me a bunch of double messages.

       To answer your question the two studs are not a problem if you use
       a stock, thick 3/8th or 1/2 inch steel exhaust flange. The reason
       for the four studs is to decrease weight.

       It is the most powerful rotary I have heard of.

   Scary how fast the pipes turn red.  Eesh.  I wonder how long you could
   run one at that output.

   There are several good 4 rotor vids out there now.  The one in this vid
   sounds fantastic..

   The sewer pipe sized plumbing on several of these cars is impressive.

Paul,
I ran across a video of a n/a 20B with a slide throttle.  Good closeup
down the velocity stacks.

Thanks Mark.
I love the sound of the idle. Nice muffler. Cleans right up
and heads out :) Our RX8 p-port engine idles much better.
Looks like an early version of our Teflon
slide throttle. More power to them. Literally :)

I wish I had an email address for this outfit
as I would like to get some feed back on their experience
with the Teflon slide throttle.
