I am clueless when it comes to rotaries. Whats with the 6 intake plenums? Does that mean it has 6 chambers? How does that work?

Generally, there are 2 to a rotor so you're looking at the 3 rotor [20B]. Most if not all the RX7s and 8s are with the 2 rotor [13B] engine from the factory, I think. Then there is the mack daddy, the R26B [4 rotor] craziness.

Mani, if most if not all RX7s and 8s come with the 13B which models come with the 20B (I assume it's made by Mazda as well)?

Don,

You may have to google that one mate. I don't know.

Well Wikipedia seems to suggest it was only ever fitted to the Eunos Cosmo which ceased production in 1995. There is apparently a newer Renesis version developed for the Furai which is probably not in production yet.... All fascinating stuff considering Mazda nearly went under trying to convert completely to Rotary engines but has somehow managed to keep the concept alive albeit in a limited form.
