Pricey, but nice - real rotary engine compression tester
Check it out -

VERY similar to the Mazda digital compression tester, gives you numbers for each combustion face. I'd love to have one, but the price is still a bit high, even though it's cheaper than the Mazda tool.
It's $890 or so, BTW.

Good Find Dale, Thanks
But yes it is a touch expensive. I do like how you can hook it up to your computer and print out a graph just like Mazda's. I like how it will show you the cranking RPM, that is very helpful information which you don't get with a normal compression tester. Although I have become very proficient the normal compression tester.
I'll have to see if I can get three or four people around my area with rotaries to go in on it and share (yeah right, that will be the day). But that will make it more feasible to purchase at that point.
Thanks

I built mine for about $50
