I suspect it wont work as well as they hope it will, as far as im aware they dont actually have a proper working prototype and are TOTALLY guessing on power outputs etc, and I think that if they get the results they want power wise they will find the main shaft breaking!

Does seem a bit too good to be true doesn't it?

The thing I like most about it, is they quote the same weight for the turbo and N/A engines they are planning.

Have you actually stopped to consider the weight of the sort of turbo and intercooler you will need for 3000bhp

Looks like the fela with the long hair & beard did a bit too much acid back in the 60's then.

It says Mazda Rotary - 4 cyl. equivalent

I.e. the the rotary is equivalent to a 4 cylinder engine in terms of power output.

I'll place 100 million that every fact they claim is lies.

It'll never be seen or heard of beond this website. And thats not because the US are stopping the technology to keep the oil industry going.

JAmes.

That shows how it works.

Maybe it's just me but it seems it has a higher risk of failure, with the piston banging each other!!
