you guys should stop knocking the rotory engines, from a performance stand point, they are ------- sick. the 12a not so much. And kain, its a bridge port, not a P port, I"d be suprised of that thing made 200whp.

I highly doubt that thing makes 175hp, Rotarys NA's are loud and annoying. Why would someone have done all that work with a 12a?.. atleast put the time and effort into a 13b.

I think its a stupid *** swap, for all the time, trouble you could put in a mildly built ls/vtec and probably eat that thing alive, Not to mention it would probably last 10 times longer than a rotary.

yeah, that'd be my whole basis for doing that conversion. Hell i'd do it with a T port even though i'd get 7 miles to the galon, but ---- rotaries can take 35+ lbs of boost when built correctly

I think its a cool idea. Super light engine in a super light car. I agree on the 12a vs 13b thought though.
why if you are going to do this not use the bigger engine...
Now I want to see a 20b RWD civic.
