Small engine in a small car? Totally make sense. I have been thinking about this for years... but I just dont have the knowledge and skills to do it. Good Luck!!!! im coming from a rx8 too.
I would definitely want to see a 10k RPM 20b s2k tho lol

Holy thread ressurection...
I am in the research stage of a rotary swap.
I own a '91 RX-7, running 400+hp for years without failure!
But.. i may get bored with the car itself, not the rotary.
The S2K looks awesome, just needs a "better" engine imo.
Mine is almost perfected to my liking, and will be a pretty easy swap due to the full standalone management
Anyone know if this guy has even started it, because there are no pictures...
Would be helpfull if he did

I did all the rotary mods myself, My engine is running strong for 10 years, running 400+hp for the last 4 years on stock internals and ports.
It has encountered massive detonation, overheating, overboost, massive lean periods under full boost, turbo failure and it is still like new..
A rotary is as reliable as you want it to be, if you know what you are doing
I get the same average mileage as a factory FC, even with this amount of horsepower.
To me, the rotary is superior and a lot more fun and i am sticking with it
Its not about getting more power out of an s2k, i want to put my engine into some other car and i love the S2K looks.
The F20C has been swapped into an FC, so why not go the other way around?
A rotary in an S2K also lowers the center of gravity, as the F is a very tall engine

Because there is a reason that they chose to go with the F20!
