What makes an engine rev faster?
The only things that I know make an engine rev quicker are lighter internals, flywheel, and Ive heard compression?
What could be done to make a 13b-rew rev quicker?
The vid of the F1 car that was posted made me jealous :/

are you talking about what makes an engine rev up faster or rev higher? there's no trick to higher rpm aside from just having a really good engine that can breath at the rpm you want.

How fast it revs up is basically a measure of the torque it makes and how heavy the engine/flywheel/accessories are.
So, if you were running it stripped for racing w/ a light *** flywheel and it was on boost, it would rev fast as hell. However, off boost, the rev increase wont be as fast.
(Yeah I know this is totally not the answer you want) The 'fastest revving' engine I can think of that you could conceiveably get would be some stroked out supercharged v8 with a light flywheel and minimal accessories out of gear. Unfortuantely it wont rev all that high unless you put in forged EVERYTHING and have some serious valve springs. :P
So, for a turbo rotary to spin up fast, stock twins in sequential w/ all the breathing mods and a light flywheel and underdriven accessories.
