To sum it up, they increase the power better than they would on any other car (yes, even more % increase than a Supra), but also really increase the risk of you wrecking your engine if you don't know much about rotaries.

To give you an example of what I mean, people have dyno proven to put free flowing exhaust systems on stock RX-7's and gained up to 60 hp! However, this will make the car run lean, as more fuel is required, and if you don't know this, say by-by to your engine.

Thanks for the compliment. Those are also the reasons I stick around the Single Turbo and Rotary Performance forums as well.
They are focused on the topic at hand, tones of people who can knowledgably (sp?) answer the questions, and if there is a post that a newbie makes that some would view as irrelevant or simple, people usually help them out or direct them to places that can, instead of flaming them hard.
