George, I have found that you can be wrong about a great many things you think you understand completely! I do think we have a solid idea on this one however.

Bill that's two of us and your the Engineer - could we both be wrong !?

With all of the above said: We have YET to attain even the SAME horsepower on the dyno as we are getting from our race engine(s) using the 89-91 non-turbo rotors !!!
I have one question about this set up. Is the depression in the RX-8 rotor symmetrical about the centerline? If they run the rotors "backward"  to change the side taper cutout and the depression isn't symmetrical they have changed the in and out taper and the combustion chamber shape/timing.
