reset ECU, clean filter and MAF and hope your car likes it better. besides that, short of you installing it incorrectly or having a leak somewhere, there's not much we can say...

the arc intake does not incorporate any maf screens and the position of the maf is improper....its a bad intake for the rx8 and thats why you dont see them on anybody else rx8....seriously take it off and deal with your losses theres nothing you can do....

Vac leak more than likely.
Go over the intake and make sure everything is plugged in, then clean the MAF sensor. Then for ***** and giggles you might want to push down on the ignition wires to make sure they are in place.
After that is the problems still continue, I would take it to the dealer.

when i installed my intake i didn't reset the ecu and it had similar symptoms - best bet is to go over everything and make sure you cap the nipple thingy on the vfad (granted you still have it)

ARC has many well-known good products for Evo, Impreza-Saab, and Honda.
But I doubt that the company know anything about rotary.
