Perhaps the most powerfull Rotary engine ever...

26B's are truly amazing but this TRI turbo 20B has got to be pushing over 1500rwhp+. 3x13B size rotors an 3x HKS T51 (SPL!). It most likely has 3mm apexs as well as a good port too...

This is truly my dream engine.

Meh. Ingersol-Rand's IR-5000 engine made 1100 HP with two naturaly aspirated rotors way back in 1972.

OK, granted... they displaced over 20 liters each.

see, when you get to that much power, it's pointless.

theres a limit to how much hp i want...theres no limit to how much money i want...

nice car, but way too much hp...its like a short wheelbase is nice, but you get to a point where if the wheelbase were any shorter the car would only have one axle...then you know the wheelbase is too short. same with horsepower, there comes a time when spinning the tires is fun and there comes a point when you cant not spin the tires, then you probably have a few too many ponies under the hood.

if the car is engineered correctly it should still be usable
