The sound of a rotary engine is like music to me, its just SO bad a-- sounding. I guess Im just not a v8 guy.. its big and inefficient, just the sound of them is like they are struggling to push the air in and out.. you say its gonna make 400 hp, thats like 70 hp per liter of displacement.. then take your usual turbo 1.3L rx7 that makes 500 hp.. Well thats 384 HP per liter!!!!
Any turbo rotary or turbo 4 cyl sounds so awesome. You cant really describe it until you hear it but the sound of a 1.8l 4 cyl thats making well over 350 hp sounds like it cant even believe it exists, like you are sure that the block is just going to explode in a fireball and kill everybody but it dosent, it just revs and wants to keep going past redline.. Awesome..
Ohh god, I wish it was summer.
