B: point me at a rotary NA build that makes power... The wankel was and is a failure. Don't mistake the brilliance of the handling of rx7s and rx8s and their power potential.
C: you don't mean American, you mean displacement (which is the typical route for American muscle cars) which will always make more power on an NA build
My statements are all based on after market parts and builds that have been done over the years. I am not sure about the rotary though, since all I have seen are 4 rotor builds and a naturally aspirated build done by RE Amemiya that output 400whp. I know that the Nismo 380RS is rated at 380hp naturally aspirated but I am not sure if many people go with the n/a route.
