Part of the reason that Chevy didn't do it was because they couldn't get the car to run properly. Also, in terms of displacement, Mazda did have a slightly bigger production motor in the 3 rotor 20b. No need to really increase the size and weight of the motor either when you can turbo charge it and keep a good weight distribution.
