Dark Samurai So you're getting it ported?

Yes mate its being street ported :-)

It was extremely quick i called them yesterday and due to a mis understnading they hadnt started. They called me today and its all stripped and assess they have started the rebuild and as soon as i drop off the new manifold then engine cam go straight back in :-)

Cant wait to have it back i have missed it a lot 1000 miles running it in is gonna hurt tho lol

To be fair, in comparison to stripping an inferior piston engine. The superior rotary is a piece of **** to strip down...

Glad to see you're making progress mate.

If an engine is that easy to take apart, you can't help but think they knew it would need to be...

Looking forward to seeing this engine transplant/refurb complete though Smile

Yeah ot does make you wonder lol, i was going to do it myself but felt having the warranty would be a far bigger benefit to me.

Well i have a lot more plans but this has meant i have had to delay them a bit but will be getting some videos of it when its back as even before the manifokd was fitted it made a glorious noise lol

I think a supercharger would be a good bit of kit on a renesis. There is a kit available somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it out. I found a very interesting build thread for an NC mx-5 with a supercharged renesis engine in and it had plenty of area under the curve Big Grin
