I plan to embarrass all you with the mad HP/TQ of the wankel. I should go first to set the bar for crazy DYNO numbers out of my NA 1.3L of raging doritos!

OK, WITH JONATHAN THAT CLOSES THE A LIST FOR THE DYNO.
IF ANYONE STILL WANTS A SHOT ON THE DYNO I WOULD SAY SO ON THE B LIST IN CASE SOMEONE HAS A LAST MINUTE CATASTROPHE.

Hurm, Article II Range is right behind there... might make it a combo trip.

I can bring a few random parts:
323 GTX valve cover for 1.6 (great shape)
1.8 valve cover with timing belt cover cut off (needs paint)
HID retrofit kit
2.5" pipe with greddy bov flange
dsm bov
3" brake ducts
Light/small mirrors (faux CF under black paint)

Anyone interested in my old custom 3" exhaust? It was the center exit, sat hi up under rear, custom back bushing mount and bumper work required. Or... chop out the nice Vibrant 3" muffler (4" tip) and resonator... and use rest of 3" piping for fun stuff.

Adam's wankels are always broken. I'll be surprised if he makes it to the event without hitching a ride from me.

Just ask him about how long his FD has been on blocks in the garage...

I would like to get in on this however I would need to get in on one of the early spots if possible because I gotta be somewhere later in the afternoon.
I would like to see how my car stacks up against other similar cars so lets make this happen! -phil

I forgot I also have a Jackson Racing (rebranded aquamist) water injection kit (complete).
I also have the Greddy electronic boost gauge setup...

I'll dyno the reverse beast if I can get fit in.

First the FD wasn't broken, after 20 years and 101k miles it just needed a nice long careful rebuild. Second, the 8 is fixed! My awesomeness was able to exorcise the demons make her run. I haven't had a CEL in a month!
