In the realm of automotive experimentation, Adam LZ's foray into the four-rotor Supra is a tale of chasing the elusive high-pitched symphony that defines a true rotary engine. The initial hurdle of the engine lacking that signature sound led the team on a quest to dissect the very essence of exhaust headers and intake setups. As they delved into the intricate world of header design, facing challenges due to the secretive nature of the rotary community, the team sought guidance from experts to unlock the secrets of achieving optimal power and sound.

With the off-season providing a window for refinement, the team embarked on a journey to fine-tune the intake setup, drawing inspiration from 787b engineering papers and expert advice. By shortening the intake runners significantly, they aimed to hit peak torque at a specific RPM, aligning the engine's characteristics with the desired performance goals. Dyno tests became the battleground for evaluating the impact of these modifications, with hopes of witnessing substantial power gains and a symphony of high-pitched notes reverberating through the Supra.

The collaborative efforts with industry experts like Matt Ging and vibrant performance underscored the meticulous approach taken in the pursuit of automotive excellence. Through 3D modeling and thorough analysis of the existing header, the team ventured into uncharted territory, striving to craft a header design that not only optimized power delivery but also resonated with the soul-stirring sound of a rotary engine. Despite facing challenges and enduring the fiery trials of testing, the team's unwavering dedication to perfection and the pursuit of that distinctive rotary engine sound set the stage for a thrilling automotive saga filled with innovation and relentless determination.
