[Mike Bellis]

I started a new thread for the re build of the Turbo wankel project.

Here is a link to the begining.

With a little help from my Brother and Son, we got the car into the garage and I tore the engine out. It took a little over an hour to pull.



The turbo looks ok. It's a little dirty but I can't see any knicks in any blades. Shaft play is minimal and it spins wirh air without drag or noise. I will have to take it apart to find any further signs of damage.



As expected, I blew the apex seal of rotor 2. The white specks in the picture is where the seal should be. There is very fine grit in the exhaust port. Rotor 1 looks fine. Time for a rebuild or JDM crap motor. I will have to look at my budget, A rebuild is 2-3 times the cost of a JDM motor. Either way, all the components will bolt on. There is a chance if I go JDM, that I will have to modify the engine brace for different motor mounts.



Here's some pics of the package...
