How many turbocharged or supercharged 8 here?
Have been thinking to turbocharge or supercharge my 8, did some 'research' but not much information related locally.. can people who have turbo or supercharger on their 8s share their experiences?

Looking at the way the 8 drives it would seem more logical to have a modest supercharger that would help with the lower RPM performance. Whereas I think a turbo on an Rx-8 would exagerate the normal turbo load.... Either way they will use MUCH more fuel...
I'm happy with the performance and I don't feel the need to prove anything to some wally in a WRX... Real cars don't need a turbo!

All I am always question about the forced induction is tuning, heat management and reliability. Someone will eventually solve all 3 and I am not prepare to spend extra money to find the answer :o.... let the company itself find them out.
