Whose pipes are you planning to run with?

Looks like it'll be a solid setup.

I'd never heard of them, so I checked out their website (turblown.net). They've got some pretty impressive stuff going on there. Very nice picture gallery.

Can't wait to see how it'll look Saucey.

Where are you planning on locating the snail? It won't fit down low where the GReddy puts it. It would only really fit as a remote setup or a front mount.

I don't think so. I don't remember ever seeing his 8 in Tublowns shop. Also that Turblown whipped up a very nice Top mount manifold for my setup.
Pics are in my links in my signature.

Old post but everytime time I got ready for it things came up. Now at this point and time my engine went out on me on friday. Mazda isn't goin go cover it so I'm like I might as well do it the right way. I'm just drop in a 13b-tt using a sinle turbo I can be turboes and ported for less than messing with an engine that's has the same issue.

What are you going to use for engine management? It's not going to be a drop in with the RX8 ECU.

Sounds like another Mazsport incident waiting to happen.

I would go with a well known shop that has been in business for a while for something like this.

Check out what the guys at Turblown just completed for me;

This car lays patches at freeways speeds...
