Anyone wanna share factual rotary info with me?

I'm putting together a rotary and turbo technical notebook for myself. So far I have a bunch of equasions for intercooler efficiency, and I'm gonna get stuff about A/R's, and I have degrees of porting and whatnot.
So do you guys suggest anything that i could shove in? Like good factual info.

Anything factual and interesting would work, like I have some of the gears on the T2. Which I'll put together and print out and put in there.

So far I have the porting info from Yaw Power and the porting info from Rotary Engines Illustrated.
I also have info from a report I did for school, and geometry of all the parts involved, and definitions.

So anyone care to help and contribute?

I also have info on Error Check Codes for S4 and S5 FC's, and how-to's for mods like fuel pump, and 3800RPM stumble, and ATF treatment, mainly FC stuff because thats my main interest.
But I'm gonna get the HP for years, and engine types they had, and times and speeds if i can find em

wow great chart
I'll be sure to print this out, and some people who are interested in porting should check out those two links I provided. And the little clickable chart on rotary engines illustrated for the port types is badass, I'm printing out each different one lol

A/F ratios depend greatly on porting as well as turbo or non turbo, and what your ignition system can handle, and the particular load on the engine at the time.

With my MSD installed I could run very lean mixtures without misfire, my highway cruise O2 readings were around .100v to .050v to not measurable .000v! (No idea what that translates to but it's extremely lean!) Cruise all day on super lean mixtures, as soon as you accelerated the power circuit on the carb'd kick in and the numbers would flip to the rich side, let off and go back to cruise and it runs nice and lean again. SUPER good fuel economy, plugs stayed nice and free of carbon, and I bet you could eat off of the insides of the engine

Car also would NOT idle near a stoich ratio... it had to be rich. (Started misfiring if the O2 readings got leaner than .85) Boingers will idle happily all day at stoich.
