New member w/ rotary swapped cars

Greetings everyone,

I am Cedric, 31 from France.

It has been a while that I have been reading this forum and learning great things. I am an autodidacte and I like to do everything myself on my builds. I have been into building cars for over a decade. I have always been attracted to rotaries, especially when living in Australia for 5 years in the past, I got to witness quite a few brap machines.

I am also the founder of the performance parts company CEIKA.

I finally got into rotaries recently and started by swapping my drift missile (BMW E34 530i v8) with a 13b-rew fitted with a M90 Gen 5 supercharger. I rebuilt it with a full Bridgeport & tuned it at 12psi 270whp @ 9000rpms & 350Nm. Then last year I found a rusted KE70 and swapped it with a Renesis engine and stock ecu this time. Then back on the BMW 513i, I added a big turbo to the 13b-rew to twincharge it. I am currently tuning it on the dyno and it is doing 490whp now at 7700rpms great flat torque from bottom to top. Going to push it past the 500whp at 9000rpms later this week. And I hope to keep it reliable as much as possible :p

I plan to do more builds in the future so I thought it'd be good to start sharing my builds here with other brap lovers and it is not often that we get to see a V8 car swapped with a rotary

Thank you! I was wondering in which section I could do a post about the build. Post some more photos and details. In the 3rd gen build section? I read a few posts about M90 setups but not much actual results.
