Wanted to say a quick hello to everyone on RCC: "Hello!"

I'm from Houston, TX and currently working on my first rotary - 12A. It's going into a 1985 Corolla coupe (not uncommon). No, I'm not a crazy Puerto Rican just a goofy Filipino.

















Please excuse my poor welding. Still very much a novice welder.

Looking into a Camden draw-through supercharger setup but planning to rock the IDA for a bit and try my hand at the DLIDFIS modification with the HEI modules.

Hoping to learn more about Wankels.

Thanks.

Hmmm, thanks for the suggestion on the Camden.

I was eyeing some 48 IDA turbo setups. I was considering the Camden draw through route because of the fact I didn't have to prep for boost.

With a turbo setup, I'm looking at a turbo, turbo manifold, piping, intercooler, bov, waste gate, intake box, hoses, braided oil lines, fittings and different fuel pump.

I could stick with the Aeromotive 13301 fpr?

Will I have to change out the floats and gaskets on the IDA? Looks like I'll have to hit the books a bit more.
