Just Curious to hear what you all think, this car is sinisterly fast, and has amazing amounts of torque for a rotary engine. I saw the dyno sheet for it and I didnt know if it was accurate, let me know what you think and I'll tell you the numbers if your interested. No this wasnt my car, someone I know who lives a little ways north from me. We have been modifying our cars in very similiar ways for years now, but I just couldnt beleive what he got from this dyno pull. I almost asked if they had calibrated the dyno recently.

Sounds about right to me. I was thinking 300ish, but I think to the flywheel, not to the wheels (because I'm weird)
