Just throwing this kit for the 8 out there. This is one of the two kits I'm currently debating over. If I ever get the money saved up. Thoughts and comments.

Esmeril Racing RX-8 Turbo Kit

The kit looks quite nice, I only wish they would have focused on the components a little more in the video. I didn't see a price but guessing it will be a little pricey. That would make the RX8 into the car I think Mazda wanted to make. That turbo was huge.....The car took off like a rocket, reminds me of the Rx7 of days past. Good luck and happy savings.

Price without EMS is $5,895. W/EMU $6,495. A bit pricy but woth it for the gains. I'm still waiting to see dynos they are supposed to post on RX8Club. They claim +400 WHP. (with added components)I want to see the Dyno first.

I need more than luck. Powerball Wednesday.

Looks nice. Kinda cool that they were able to keep the stock engine cover intact.

I can't beleive these guys. They are claiming that with their kit the 8 should be running high to mid 11's when proporly tuned and better suspension and be hitting in 12's no problem. I beleive this is at 16 PSI. I wish I had the money now. Still no Dyno from them because they are having problems with the, "drive by wire" system when on the dyno. The car is sensing no movement from the front wheels so it shuts the throttle and they are losing power. When running on the street I beleive they are getting full RPM range. I WANT SOO BAD. BUT I ALSO WANT PROOF NOT SCEPULATION.

Enough talking and read. Starts on page 22 and ends on post 559
