Keep in mind that the Mazda-Honda shop is not a tuner shop, and don't really want to become one (at least not when I was there last time). They are a dealer-alternative. That means that you can take your car there for normal maintenance, and avoid the dealerships. The very nice thing is that you can take your modified car there, and don't have to worry about any hastle about it, and they can work around your mods. You also don't have to worry about all of the other dealership issues.
The thing is, they have several rotary savvy folk there, so they are a good dealer alternative for a rotary car. That's especially nice since dealers aren't really an option for a rotary vehicle other than an RX8.

---jps That's GREAT info Sputnik, thanks! :D
But one question: if they're a dealer alternative, can they do warranty work?

I don't know about what warranty work they can do. You'd have to ask them.

True True. Glad to hear you had as good of an experience w/ Christian & the gang, Guy. :D
Sorry I missed your dyno, Jercs, but my daughter had her karate tournament that started at 8 that morning. I was hoping you'd be dynoin' later in the day...
