yeah i heard something similar from this rx7 owner. he was telling me that with a triple rotary motor from japan(forgot the engine code, sorry), your ---- will rev to 14k no problem. i was like wtf... thought he was full of ----. but then i heard that from another rx7 owner, and figured its probably true. those motors are crazy, plus they are only 1.2 liters i think.
no rotary will rev that high without a new eccentric shaft, race bearings, and hardend stationary gears. Not to mention the oil mods you need. Basically they were full of ----. :) they will rev to about 9k most. The 20b was built for boost, it was also built for smooth power. Its redline is no where NEAR 14k, more about 8k. Even the old NA 13b's only revved to 9k. Anything more than that and you hard to upgrade internals. Thats a big misconcpetion about rotaries, everyone thinks they can rev super high with no mods. But with a 13b, you can easily get 500hp out of them, with a 20b ... well thats all whole nother .7 litre. Thats almost 40% more power. So you do the math ;)

very well stated

I kept looking for the boost guage, then I reallized no turbo.
The I was kinda impressed, then I reallized that pretty much any old toyota 4 banger could hold its redline for that long at idle ( idle = no load ).

Still funny to watch, I bet a turbo would have died in 1/10th the time, then again, maybe not, idle = no load = no boost.
