Now that sounds like my kind of tech meet [img]http://coloradomazdaclub.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

The only supercharger I've installed/helped install in the past was a Jackson Racing SC for a RSX Type S. Although I've swapped out turbos for DSM's, Subarus, VW's, ect. When you pick up your SC, be sure to let me know, I'll be sure to be there for the install.[/b]

Yeah it does sound fun i will be there for sure i have never done anything like that my friend had to rebuild his engine and turbo but he did allot on his own i helped a little but nothing huge to know much about it hehe. but i saw a video of some guy that just got it in and man it makes me want it even more lol but im not going into debt for it haha

Wow...apparently Pettit is working out the final kinks. Instead of a piggyback, they've pretty much just have a reflash of the stock controller complete.

yow!!! I feel asleep after the first page..... I was talking to someone about performance and the last, last thing
you should do mod wize is a reflash. The reflash is dependent on the mods you have done and so if you reflash
and then add more perf parts you need to reflash again to account for the new changes.... my 2 cents.

Not sure which route I'll go, piggyback or flash. Piggyback seems better right now, but everything causes a CEL, it seems.

Pettit has finally released the ECM reflash version of the kit. From RX8club: Holiday Specials for RX8 Compressor Kits On sale until January 2008


Stage II 275WHP & 185 lb/ft $5794 w/flash



Stage II CS 300 WHP &195lb/ft $6144 w/flash



This is a limited quantity offer, all orders require a $500 deposit and balance paid by shipping or completion date, For Shipping charges email Turner@pettitracing.com provide shipping info and zip. Installation of the kit is $995 plus the FL Sales tax of 6.5% and can be scheduled between November 2007 and march 2008, However; all orders must be paid in full prior to December 31, 2007.



Both Holiday offers include ecu re-flash and are available for 04-07 manual trans model only.



Our latest release Stage II “CS” include re-flashing the ECU and the addition of a hi flow cat.

The Stage II CS Kit can produce 300 whp and 195 lb/ft torque @ 5-7psi. Most of the added hp is a result of re-flashing the factory ECU. Other benefits include: Superb drivability, and clean smooth rock solid acceleration through the entire RPM range. Also with the stock ECU and OBD II diagnostics system fully functional there is no ck engine light unless something is wrong. Most OBDII compatible scan tools can perform full system scans and clear codes and the Mazda dealer can still perform full service with the kit installed as well. Our latest testing on 5 different RX8’s has consistently yielded 278 - 300 whp through the stock exhaust with the latter using a hi flow cat. We will continue testing other combinations; like the stock cat with performance cat back system etc, etc.



Customers involved in racing and/or track events may consider using a water/methanol injection system to help keep charge temps under control in extreme conditions. We are now testing W/M injection setups that become active when charge temps reach a set point; we hope to have these kits available soon. With the re-flash setup there is no method yet to trim fuel and /or retard timing under extreme conditions, this results in a slightly rich mixture as charge temps increase, so far this is no problem and may actually be of benefit, also the factory knock sensor seems to be doing its job, so far there are no instances of detonation.



A complete install at Pettit takes 2 days with 1 day for road testing etc. For DYI the ECU has to be sent to us for the reflash, turnaround in most cases is 2 days. More info available at http://www.pettitracing.com

happy holidays to you...that would be a fun gift to get. Would you opt for stage II or move up to stage III?

I'd probably get the Stage II. I'm glad I'm waiting a bit, as it will give them time to work out any issues they've got going on. Cool thing with the reflash is no CEL.
