What is the highest rpm rotary?
Who has info on any rotary engine with extremely high recorded rpm? I know F1 cars rev to 20k or something, what is the highest you've heard any rotary revving to? Have some kind of proof though...
|
the highest i can think of is the MPS rx-7.
the tach says 14k but they seem to stop ~10k so I'm not sure. http://mpsys.ca/Video/MPS3RotorTacRev.wmv |
Ive heard of like 13k with a monster port but never actualy seen it
|
27,000rpm.

With pinned, hardend gears in a tear port, saw 11,000. Found out not a good idea to do that very often.
|
I can do a little under 10k with my bp. i NEVER rev it over 9k.

Seems like these kind of threads pop up every month, do a search

I shift my Peripheral Port at 11k,only because i don't have a close ratio trans.my engine stops making Power at 9800,but i shift at 11 to keep the engine in the powerband.

pport do you drive that thing on the street here in the Couv?
|
lol, a p port on the street, i would shit if i saw one
|

Unlike piston engines, rotary can literally have an infinite rpm redline because of the way it revolves if you were in a vacuum like space for example. The highest I have ever heard of a RPM stop was a 6 rotor engine that redlined at 17,000 rpms and there was a video on youtube, I will see if I can try and find it and post.

What the hell? I have no idea what your talking about, but theres a little something called inertia that might disagree with you.
Meh, someone told me this and explained it to me maybe he was full of crap though. |
I think it would be wise to disregard any mechanical advice that person gave you...

umm
a 13b or 12a stops making power at 10,200 for a turbo rotory you dont have to rev that high but i take my rebuit stock motor to t 9,500 all i have is poished housings and street port im not sure f i want to do that exhaust race port should i eh what the hell ill do it |
