theres been a few things done with the larger piston RC airplane motors.

theres a roots style blower that has been made.

Im not sure what carb the wankel has on it stock, but if its nothing speical then u could get a larger shuneral ported (sp) carb. its a better desinged carb all around.

i dunno if they sella tuned pipe for the wankel either, you could make one though. ill get you links to all this stuff later, but i gtg to work 5 min ago.

http://www.bmaps.net/info/pipes.html

theres some info on pipes. i cant find the site where it shows how to make ur own, im still digging for the SC and the different carb.

For carbs, im gonna recomend a OS FX .40 carb. since (if i remember correctly) the wankel is a .30 sized motor a tuned pipe and a .40 carb would go well together.

still looking for teh superchrager, i saw it in a mag along time ago, it was cool looking.
