If you've got an engine to spare and feel like seeing what would happen if you floored it for 5 minutes, why not?

I would agree if I had more money then I knew what to do with. But most people are pretty thrifty regarding rotary parts and there is a demand for parts. Anyone with punk friends considering holding the throttle fully open on a running rotary for 5minutes don't make for good friends IMO. Give them a ford escort or some other car that is plentiful and no one will miss.
