ok, engine is removed (lost compression on rear rotor) antifreeze was everywhere, intercooler is leaking, took the turbo off and it has some deep *** cracks on the oulet, manifold is cracked like hell also, wastegate is wasted....geezzz, its gonna practically a new car by the time Im done......on the bright side though my brand new reman. Atkins rotary engine sure is pretty though, it could be its own display piece!!!

How deep are the cracks? Do the cracks start on the inside or outside? You might not need to replace as many parts as you think. Take some pics let us see

well now I have a new manifold (brand new) and another used turbo, I know that before I took the engine apart the turbo made good boost and stuff, my other turbo that I bought has some smaller cracked, but not near as bad, Im picking my old turbo and manifold up tomorrow, so Ill get some pics, Im worried that my new turbo might have bad seals in it, zero shaft play, but there is a little oil residue on the exhaust outlet, well just have to see.
