Hey All;
Hope this answers some questions.
The engine is a Mazda 20B 3-rotor, with a Garrett 4088 turbo, and as you can 
see, we've fabricated all of the manifolds.  Won't know for sure until we 
dyno the engine next week, but we anticipate a conservative 450+ hp at 
take-off, and to be turbo-normalized to 20,000 ft. +.  Initially we will be 
using a Catto 76" (130 deg. pitch) fixed pitch prop configured for cruise at 
around 250+ knots.  Cooling will go into a custom belly scoop we have 
fabricated, along with the oil cooler, all with adjustable cowl flaps. 
Benefits are 4 total moving parts, excellent weight to power ratio, dual 
spark plugs, dual fuel injectors, (one each runner), dual oil system with 
oversize cooler and pan.  Costs on the engine thus far have come in around 
$15,000, and we anticipate around 1000+ hours TBO, hopefully, as we are only 
running the engine at about 50% of it's max potential horsepower, and it 
runs on pump gas or 100LL, the computer doesn't care which......(:-).  We 
are using a RWS redrive at 2.85:1 reduction, and Tracy's EC3 computer to 
make it all go.  We anticipate a few bugs, but for the most part it seems 
pretty solid, we'll see.
