Just a little food for thought, the Tokyo Motor Show is coming up at the end of October. In it, Mazda is expected to present a "new concept" alongside its 50 year old Cosmo Sport... shall we get excited at a possible showing of their 16x twin turbo?!?!

Here are the main ones: 1. The bare block weight is about 10 pounds lighter, mainly due to the water pump changes. 2. The exhaust ports are in the side housings instead of the rotor housings so there are three ports instead of two. 3. The 'safe' max continuous RPM is maybe 1000 rpm higher. The best BSFC rpm is still the same at 5000 - 5600 rpm. 4. EGT is about
100 F cooler. 5. The exhaust noise is considerably less making it a bit easier to muffle. That's about it. The power and fuel consumption at any given RPM are the same as before in aircraft applications. The other minor differences are internal parts that don't matter unless you are overhauling the engine. Tracy Sent from my iPad

I'm not getting excited yet, but I do think that they will sell the 16X at some point.
I'd love to see the little rotary hybrid power plant released, too; it looks like a great light sport engine.
