Hello everyone recently i bought a used rx8 as a little project so I am extremely new to the rotary world but I am already becoming a fan of the rotary engine and I have a little track car that I been working on lately and after seeing a couple photo of single rotor rotary engine on the internet I really want to try building one. So my question is what base engine do you recommend to do such a conversion with? I will probably be turbocharging it since expecting 160hp from an N/A single rotor engine seems a bit unrealistic.

If you read that link to the Atkins rotary site, they sell the parts individually. They charge $995 for the E-shaft!
