Now that sounds like a plan, did Mazda ever sort out the problem of needing an engine rebuild every 20k miles?
I read an article years ago about a rotary turbo, if it could drive a moped up to 100mph then I might try and build one later on 
Diesel too? I dunno don't write it off straight away my mondeo really pulls away when you keep the turbo flowing right, plus there's all
the people who'll stop you pouring diesel into your car hehe

I'm a relative newbie to locosts, but I chose to go with a BEC, although I don't necessarily think they're better. You could pretty
easily get a CEC to the same performance as a BEC, so performance wasn't really too much of an issue. There are plus points for both CECs &
BECs, I just think BECs are a bit different and a bit more interesting. I agree with mk_xe, they're both great
