You can't just stack rotors endlessly. The eccentric shaft will twist if the torque gets too high. Nice thought, but there are practical limitations.

If this is a real project, I'm betting that they will blow-through eccentric shafts on a daily basis.

 

i dont know, but the future holds good thing!

 

Hey They Got The 4 Rotor Done!^^^^

 

wait doesnt the 787b have a 4 rotor?

 

thats Why I Said........that They Already Have The 4 Rotor Done......^^^

 

8 mpg on a good day! 4 rotors and 6 rotors will never be production engines.

Great wet dreams, but not for mass production. It's not the future.

 

Imagine 4 Rotor Twin Turbo (787).....u Think Itll Be Faster Than The Bugatti?

 

alright, i thought u were saying that like u just found out, cus you used the !, turd burglar

 

look up the 9FF....i think it a flat 6 twin turbo, beat the bugatti i think and the engine is one third as small , not no huge as w16 quad turbo bullcrap

 

The Viewing will be at the Homestead infield track after a couple of last laps.

 

It also is something like 90%+ hand/custom built engine parts, they recently made a few more of the 9ffs but they are frigging insane.

Not to mention its actually MANUAL and you can shift yourself, and you have to use the clutch.

 

^not only that, they go for less than a million $s

 

the only "sensible" way to make the rotary bigger than 4 rotors is to bank multiple engines and link them in some way to a single drive shaft

That said the rx-8 may be left in production and an rx-7 successor created (probably called rx-9), both cars would probably get the 16x and they don't exactly compete for the same market. The 8 is a GT car and the 9 would probably be a hardcore sports car to rival the S2000. No sense in discontinuing the 8 when they have all the tooling to make it and the 16x probably fits in it anyway.

Oh, and being able to run on hydrogen is sweet when you can switch to gas easily, just use gas for your fun drives, they switch to H2 for cruising on the highway at constant speed, you don't need more than 100 horses then
