BTW. The complete engine is not from Kiwi. Only the conversion kit.

Interesting comment... There are 2 turbocharged 4 rotor that i know of thats using a Precision Engineering shaft... One is QSR bmw and the other is Lawton's wagon so there could be a chance of this one being #3

hey its not that you cant turbocharge that 4 rotor engine but I would have made the ports higher and not kept them that low . just my two cents

I just bought something you could use with that dry sump Chris. It's a remote oil filter pedestal that has a built in pressure regulator so you can make adjustments without dropping the pan.

PS you already know it's badass, i don't need to tell you that .

The good thing about PP is that you could tailor the port to your exact needs for that spacific application, maybe thats why the builder opted to build these PP's in this way. Different classes of cars require different port combos, turbos and all that stuff

these ports looks to be made for a naturally aspirated engine and not for turbo thats what i am saying .
