Nothing revs quite like a rotary.
But torque is more fun IMHO. |

Lets not go overboard here.
They MAKE three cylinder engines that rev higher than that. |

There ya go. Put a bike motor in your 914! Yeah baby, put a built R1 motor in... 160hp!!!! Woohoo! Rev heaven!! But cars weigh more than bikes (even a light 914)... so again I would rate torque and engine strength/reliability over pure RPMs. |

yes torque can be quite fun. nothing like being thrown back in the seat. ;but i test drove a s2000 the other day Not an incredably fast car but when vtech kicks in and just the sound of that engine reving is something to hear. i can imagine what the guys who have alot of money that get their 911 engine reving to 8300 and beyond. |

They REV fast! Who cares! It was an answer to a question. I definately don't know anything about two strokers. Wait. I made one for shop class. Thats it. I don't even know how fast IT reved. But one of my buddies mentioned the Yamaha thing the other night. He's NHRA. His stuff revs fast, I guess,

your all over the place man. h20 cooled 914/6, turbo aircooler.... etc....
rev's are for racers and ricers....... why do you need to spool to 9k on a street motor? gimme a stroked out six with mucho torque and it would be way more streetable.... put down the ricer mag and lets get into practical land (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) sorry to be harsh - just how i see ya AA |
