    X_pipe Or Pro Chamber?????????

    ok first thing the exhuast on a rotary is VERY easily able to be compared both are 4 stroke motors both work on the same idea just because it is a rotary doesn't mean it follows some other laws of physics for operation. the reason I said the rotary goes vroooom vs the boing boing of a piston...

    X_pipe Or Pro Chamber?????????

    stangbear427 one problem I have is the same that has been mention before a big box I wouldn't think would help create for better scavenging if anything I would think it would slow the exhuast down beint it woudl create a very turbulant exhuast section hell the mazda rotary motors have a...

    Who makes the best Rear Anti-Roll Bar?

    as far as who makes the best isn't really the question but rather what size do I need that depends on many things though what style of driving, front vs rear weight bias, spring rates and so on getting too stiff of a rear anti-roll bar will make the rear end swing around too soft of one...

    X_pipe Or Pro Chamber?????????

    it seems most ppl here and even on the prochamber site are comparing it to an hpipe which it might be better but I think an x would work better then a prochamber

    X_pipe Or Pro Chamber?????????

    not sure exactly what the prochamber is except for maybe a muffler which if that is the case what is so special about it? but as far as x-pipe vs h-pipe I have seen a few test done and the h-pipe might gain you a little more peak torque, but generally no more then maybe 2-5lbs/ft for like...

    hey jcp123 how nos is cheating? well guess on to the zex kit I go that way I stay away from nos :p but for the honest question what is wrong with NITROUS? how is it cheating? is it that they bought it used and raced you with it and you lost because your still saving to get forced...

    Drove an RX-8

    yes mazda designed the motor though so since the question doesn't seem to be understood very well ok let me rephrase this question then did ford ever put any OF THEIR OWN developement into a rotary motor back in the day or did they not do anything and instead try to reap the rewards from...

    Drove an RX-8

    from the way I understand it they don't really own mazda but have quite a bit of say as to what goes on but that doesn't mean ford tried to do anything with the rotary I'm more or less curious if ford on their own tried something with the rotary though so their affiliation with mazda...

    Drove an RX-8

    did ford try or want anything with the rotary back in the day? I think just about every manufac tried but not sure about dodge or ford? know GM did but they couldn't get it going right but so did mercedes benz, rolls tried a diesel rotary, and quite a few others jumped on but nobody was...

    Drove an RX-8

    the motor itself is very reliable you will see a lot of second gen N/A rx7 with 200k plus on them mine is almost there (197k) with much abuse on it from auto-x, braket racing and my finding the open road and just letting loose through the turns and still to this day hit above the redline when...

    Drove an RX-8

    hehe the rotary is made to burn oil it injects oil into the combustion chamber to lub the seals and it doesn't need an oil tank to do it but rather it takes it straight from the sump but it isn't a design flaw either the system works very well as long as the oil seals don't go and if...
