You do! Yeh right.
I feel sorry for the person that have to make the jig for your manifold in the rx-8.
I was doing the same thing today with the same size turbo and now I think I have to get back surgery. I use to think that the rx-7 motor was bad on the back but after just a couple of minutes trial fitting this huge turbo, the rx-8 is the sure back breaker now.
how much do these weigh? i suppose the hot side is all steel? i could ship him a back brace

It's heavy, this turbo start makes boost at 2800 RPM on 20b, on my case we,ve modified this turbo to a 88mm. Inducer and 1.44 exhaust housing and it's start makes boost at 3500 RPM, Good Choice Stick!.
You need to hurry up and finish your car Stick. I am getting car sick. Besides, my neighbor just got a Greddy Turbo'd PINK rx8 and I suddenly find myself saying... "I need to fly to Florida"
the cross members you see are hinged baffles that'll minimize oil slushing under high braking and acceleration. rear will swing shut during acceleration; front will swing shut during braking.

Looks great. BTW... I hope this means your car is getting close to being done. Sheesh... man if I would have known I was behind your crazy butt, I might have had to send some "friends" to misplace your car until mine was done. LOL.
son of a ----!!! Dude---damn. One bad ass power pant being born. Great oil pan design. One question please and I am learning here--what about the baffling for the lateral G's you may be pulling on the road track?
what kind of oil coolers will you be running? DId you say traction control system? Not the oem one right?
my head is spinning

If you combine the greddy features with what scott has than that sounds like something real nice to buy.

I think scott probably thought of the needed volume PLUS adequate cooling.
I predict he will HAVE to run the mazdaspeed(or comparable) front clip for the airflow.
Damn what a job---many magazine write ups/coverage/feature for this car---Stick line your sponsors up Dude yall have a winner!

Scott does some great work. Any idea when your car is going to be done so we can get the full photo coverage?
Sometimes, I think with all the money I spent on my car, maybe 20B would have been the way to go.... hahahaha too late now. It does add up pretty quick.
looks better than oem!!
