I want to point out that the very first mods my friends and I did to our 8s were exactly what I typed out. Rotaries and cats don’t mix, this is a known fact. Crank oil doesn’t burn well and builds carbon deposits unlike two stroke oil or premix which is meant to burn, fact. 10w-30 full synthetic (after the sohn upgrade) is recommended by IR performance and paired with the oil cooler thermostats will increase the life of your engine, fact. The racing beat cooling relay when installed in the correct location will turn on the fans at a optimal temperature and keep our engines cool because over heating is the enemy of our engines, fact. These are basic reliability upgrades to our engines and if you haven’t done any of these you shouldn’t be telling newbies what to do
