Not yet but from initial testing that would be easy with the supporting mods. I can't still get over the tone or the sound of the motor.
I'm going to spill the beans in a little with a video to back it up!

Allrighty then!

Here's a quick run down on the initial testing done by E&J and Alex Lopez using their 'Billet Aluminum' rotors.

I was told by Alex that the motor is a streetported S-4 T2 with just the basic stuff. Nothing fancy was used other than a couple of extra dowels and his ALS apex seals.
First off just on free rev the motor picked up 7psi in boost over what it did before. It had no problem finding the limiter at 10.5k.
First run on the dyno yielded a 67hp increase over what it made previously at the exact boost pressure. The good thing about the increase in power was that it was through out the entire power band and averaged about 60 hp from 6K to 10.5k rpm.
Even the off boost area was up 10-15 hp. The torque remained approx the same as before. I guess that's a positive!
At 39psi dropping to 36psi by redline the motor made 860whp.
They made at least 6-7runs on the dyno to varify power and it remained about the same.
So there you go the rotors that many said could not work allready have made almost 900hp.
The motor is going to be opened up tommorow for inspection.

Video comming soon.
Stay tuned!

That was freaking awesome. It does have a very unique sound to it. You guys need to patent that and start selling that to Mazda. Either that or go start working for their rotary R&D.

What about Hard Coat Anodizing the rotors that should make them hold up longer.
