I demultiplexed the audio and put it on a cd, and drove to my local
RX8 meet. I was going to show them up with my 16X engine.
Well, to make this short, when I drove by them and hit the play button
on the dash unit, everyone pointed and laughed at me.
I got out of my vehicle, and started yelling "16X FTW!!!" to their bewilderment.
After some pause, I realized they never heard of "16X" and I had made a fool of myself.
I climbed back into my vehicle, started the engine, hit play again,
then feathered in the clutch and drove off. They all pointed
and laughed again.
Of course, that did not happen. I thought there was device
that played various engine recordings through your car speakers,
making everyone believe you had a V8 or something.

It's a 20b, and it's definitely not street tuned - that idle is far too rough (but so so sexy!) to be anything but a race tune & port. Very reminiscent of the way the 787b sounds. Even so, it's amazing and beautiful. Hell, it's even functional! If even a fraction of this styling makes its way into a future RX7/9/whatever I for one will be a happy camper.
Hey Mazda , can I please test drive the Furai?
