And you can ignition-ignite diesel. Thats how diesel wankels work.
What do they do for apex seals? I'd guess they have to be the weakest point, right? And for that matter, can those parts be made to work in a gas rotary so you can run more boost safely?

Ok.. done some research.. come to find out rotary engines just compress to low.. it may be obtained with turbo or supercharger but you must realize that you may need to change the material used to handle the pressure of 20:1 compression (which is needed to burn diesel).. which explains why diesel engines are much heavier.. plus there would have to be an autoigniter (or something like that) to spark a lil quicker than normal sparkplugs.. so there is a possibility but there is alot of work to be done.. i say just go with water injection kit that costs 300 bucks and call it a day.. and make sure your rotors are well lubed.. :-D

I'm glad to hear it, or not, as the case may be. Maybe I'll see you one of these times at the Fudd's.

Jason,
You might want to talk to the other guys about the company name "Zeal Engineering". Seeing there already is a patten out there on the name and a coilover product (and other things) in the import tuner buisness, down the road it could cause some legal issues that you probably would not want to deal with. Just some food for thought.

Dude, I saw your car yesterday like that... I thought it might have been something you did, so I didn't bring it up...

Damn, that sucks

Negative...

They hit his car... He gets to hit them with his car...





If this was legal in any sort of way, it'd probably have to be HIS car... I'd sign the title for my truck over to Jason for a day.

Probably pull the entire front end from the radiator forward, including the radiator and put a bolt through the fan clutch too.

This'd be too fun to watch...

Now the question is, do I sacrifice a head gasket to watch this or do I put a tank of water in the bed, hooked to the lower radiator hose and aim the upper hose out front so they get pelted with 200 deg water before being run over with the truck and hit with a fan that's spinning a couple thousnad RPM.

The note says:

Greetings sir,

I am writing this note to tell you that I have hit your car. People are looking at me and smiling in commendment becasue they think I am leaving my contact and insurance info. This recudes the chance that they will call the police and report the wreck or remember my appearance.

Have a Nice day.
