Can you get to 400 without turbo or super-charger

rotories are awsome engines. people just dont know how to take care of them. they do amazing in racing.

That still doesn't make up for the fact that they are gas-sucking, torque-less wonders.

I have a friend back in Omaha who has a single-turbo in his FD. Nice car. Think it puts down a little north of 400 to the wheels. Still blows apex seals all the time. And I KNOW he takes good care of it...

BTW, the racing rotaries (3-rotors, yes?) are CONSIDERABLY better than the ones you find in production cars I believe...
