I like the rotary engines but they do consume oil at a ferocious pace.

They put out great power per their size, but the apex seals suck and tend to blow out, meaning you have to replace the seals or engine. Plus, they are like a Dagwood sandwich, you can just keep slapping more rotors on to make more and more power. The 22B is a 3 rotor design that they used in race engines and it ran something like 600 HP. Each rotary cylinder is in effect comparable to a 3 cylinder piston engine in HP output.

The only problem is that the toque numbers SUCK!!! They are worse than our Acuras.
