Bosch Performance Parts?

Where can RX8 owners get there hands on Bosch performance parts, like the ones used in the Koni Grand-AM series?

I work for a company that has a account with Mazda Speed USA but it is the owners account he races and builds Miatas for a fun but he hates it if you waist his time for example I thought he could get me the speed body kit at a good discount and a week later he quoted me 24,000 for the entire Grand AM carbon fiber kit made me look like a dumb *** so before I go down that road again I thought I would check prices here first

You can get a full seibon carbon kit for about a quarter of that price... only thing they don't have is the roof I think.

Just get the part numbers and have the owners look it up.

Unless you're running that series you'd be better off buying a MoTeC system

That Bosch ECU is quite complex.

I remember reading Eric Meyer's ECU tuning thread and thinking......that's what it must feel like to tune a car from NO BASELINE up.

It took them hours and hours of testing on the dyno to get the big numbers out of their race car. Definitely not an ECU for the average Joe. Unless they have thousands of dollars to cover the dyno rental time!
