Is the Rx7 a reciprocating or rotary engine?
The RX7 was the car that made the Rotary engine cool. With a displacement of only 1400cc it matches the power output of engines nearly twice that size. The beauty of the Rotary engine is that it can enjoy much higher speeds without being subject to the same internal forces as a reciprocating engine.
What can be done to improve RX7 performance?
A better flowing exhaust will further help to improve peak power. The turbo chargers on the RX7 can be uprated to larger flowing units and because of the high RPM characteristics to the engine they are well suited to a twin turbo setup to avoid lag.
