10,000 rpm on a rotary is nothing really special.

There are a few rotary engines built up to be able to push 15,000 -16,000 rpm. It's extremely rare, but it's been done.

On a side note, that guy is a douche :P

I suppose I did forget about Rx-8's as I've dealt with mostly 2nd gen rx-7's lately.

The guy is claiming it is a rotary that redlines at 7k but he regularly runs it to 10k, but he says it only has 4 cylinders....

RX8 has a stock 9k redline, RB ecu reflash raises up to 9300.

I guess it's safe to say that said "cylinders" are placed in an O shape

Fuel cut on my old 04 hit somewhere around 9500, the ECU was totally stock

"The last year they made second gen, that one came with a turbo. But from 86 to 90 I think it is.... 91...."

"The third gen - nah... they're v6's."

This guy has NO clue.

He's not that far off, I'm 30% sure all 3rd gen RX-7's came with LS motors from chevrolet. So they are V8's not V6's.:burnout:

Hopefully far less than 30% sure.
