Big hint . . SEARCH!!! It will protect you from getting flamed.
Congratulations on your purchase. This is a great source of info here. Lots of nice people too. And as the mods go . .if you want more power, save up for a turbo. But suspension wise, $1000 will get you a very nice set up.
Welcome to the addiction.

welcome, the only things you can do to maximize your experience with the rx8 with that much money is suspension mods (springs and shocks, sway bars, strut bars and etc). exhaust and intake create better breathing but no real hp gain. Or you can go with tranny mods like flywheel and clutch for better response. its really up to you and what you want to do with your rx8. and yes, serach your heart out because if you ask the same question, you'll get burned.
