I've been reading a thread for quite some time now, awaiting updates eagerly.

http://www.rx7club.com/build-threads-294/4-rotor-fc-build-974831/

Which inspired me to search for videos on youtube.

Mazda Rx8 4 rotors

and

4 Rotor Mazda RX-8 Time Attack Car Revving Engine At Seven Stock 2009

These things sound way bad ass and 2 strokey.  If you have not seen this thread, and you love cars and engines, you're missing out.

My question is: are these 3 and 4 rotor builds always custom or are there kits available?  For as much work as the guy in that first link I posted has gone to, I can't imagine many would follow in his footsteps.  That leads me to think there are kits, or some easier way to produce these fire breathing monsters.

I want one

Hood, hubcaps and maybe a truck sized muffler.

It still would be tough silencing that banshee wail.

It would also be a crime.

Against the engine gods.

That's true.

The lack of emblems on my '69 Mustang 428 fastback didn't mask the smoke left at intersections either. [evil]
