I think she just wanted to be like her Honda buddies.. and they don't under stand how a rotary boosts compared to a piston car. So if they are getting 23 PSi on their Honda's she must be getting 25 PSI cause she is pulling faster times.

Any responses yet? Cause I am smelling some BS too.

No she's lookin at the stock boost gauge in the dash which reads from -20 to +40, and she thinks it means PSI

The externals of a rotary dont get all that hot, in comparison with the internals or exhaust. Remember that the centralized oil flow does 2/3 of the cooling in a rotary, and since coolant temps never (should) rise above about 210*F, neither should the greatest part of the external surface area of the engine. In fact, Half of the engine paint I use for rebuilds is not rated as engine or high-heat paint, but nevertheless holds up pretty well, at least over the course of the 2 years Ive been using it...

yeah, well she still doesnt know **** aobut he car, except that its a turbo rotary

her family paid for it and her freinds built it. That's why she is thanking them, cause if she actaully KNEW anything she'd would know shes not forcing 25 pounds in that engine, especially out of a T04.. and not grenading it.
