Lighten the Rotors, Dynamic balance - in any case....
Smack on a Turbo/Intercooler - P-Port and keep it nice and low with the RPM!
Thanks for the info...

Having the older 13B, which was redline in the auto at 7500 rpm, I
would certainly not feel comfortable with a higher rpm under
continuous operation. Now, with lightened rotors and dynamic
balancing, I might reconsider {:>)
Even with perfectly balanced or weightless rotors, wouldn't the problem with 9000RPM be the centrifugal pressure of the apex seals on the rotor housings? Can they stand that sort of continuous workload, or would it just require pumping more oil into the chamber?
