I have a question for ya. I understand that your company only specializes in turbos. There is a Flanged Quad Throttle Body for the RX8 that I'm tempted to buy. I've asked around about its design as to my superiors of knowledge on cars, they were confused, but doubted that it was a scam. The price I'm not really concerned with, unless you could provide me with a more reasonable product. If you had some time on your hands would you look at it, possibly give me some info about it. Gains in particular, but also installation. To be honest, its design is unlike any throttle body I've ever seen. Maybe you could show some light on this mystery. here is the URL.

also another thing I need help on:
http://www.obdscan.net/RX8_PGM.htm a standard programmer
and
http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/part..._Booster/16326
I would appreciate it very much if you could help me out here. I do eventually want to turbo my car, and I would like to do some research on y'all s product. Thank you for reading this.

Please check your email again as we responded. You ordered the ball bearing option (which is a sweet upgrade btw) but it was backordered at Precision. It is just shipping to our facility now, we will install oil flanges, orientate it, and pack it with the rest of the kit.
That is why some kits shipped before yours, theirs were not with the ball bearing option.
Not sure why you are not receiving our emails, feel free to message me on here.
Best Regards,
Chris

Chris,first of all congrats for offering this great kit to us all at this very competitive price ...I do though have some questions i would like you to clear out for me if you don't mind.
1) For all us, COBB owners ,when you say soon you will be offering a proper MAF intake piping, how soon is that approximately ??
2) Will we need your Battery Relocation Kit and Battery with the standard kit ??
3) Is it necessary to buy your upgraded ignition coils for the standard kit? And if yes,do they have different ignition dwell timings from the stock ones?If also yes,can you provide the new dwell timings to us in order to get a proper tune from our tuner ??
4) For all of us that dont want to send you in our stock injectors for upgrade,since that will mean that we won't be able to use our cars for at least a month,can you offer a set of stock-upgraded ones and at what price??Can you also offer bigger injectors(prefferably the 1000 cc ones) so that we will be upgrade ready for the bigger kit if we choose so in the future and if yes at what cost ??
Thanks again Chris,for an indeed interesting turbo choice ...

I will try to answer in order:
1. We are looking at somewhere in fall.
2. You will need to either relocate it with our kit or put it in your trunk.
3. It is not necessary but recommended. The Stock ones tend to go bad with use and they can barely handle 300whp. As for dwell, this is not something you adjust on our ignition coils. This is something you adjust on the EMS whatever it may be. And yes, our coils can handle a variety of dwell amounts. We can provide you with guidance for this.
4. We will offer a core charge amount for if you just want to keep your injectors intact. As fro upgradeability, we will offer a full Standard to HP upgrade kit that will include injectors amongst other things.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Best regards,
Chris

Quick question, lets say I order the kit, will I get everything I need? including the injectors? and then we just send you OUR injectors back? or do we get the kit then send OUR injectors in and then wait to get them back? (which would take a while)

We would need yours sent in for modification or we could sell you a set.
We turn them around fairly quickly so down time shouldn't be too huge.
Best regards,
Chris

I notice you have high flow cat listed as a future purchase...if you're going FI skip it and just get a resonated mid-pipe. Odds are you will burn through that cat, at least with FI in the 8 that's been my experience.
I would suggest a few more things that you might consider changing:
1. uprated oil pressure regulator
2. radiator fan control - if you're going AP then this will address that
3. Alter your water to coolant mix for summer and winter driving in Chicago
4. Premix
5. Use a 40 weight oil
Another tuning option would be Shook Motorsports. He's successfully dyno tuned with the AP several Greddy turbo cars.
Chris, looks like a great setup and at a sorely needed price point!

Chris,
You don't think an upgraded radiator, oil coolers, or water pump is essential when getting any turbo? It just seems to me that engine temps are essential for performance and reliability. I do realize the water/meth system aids in this endevor but what about the above mentioned parts?
I just find it hard to believe no additional cooling is required.
Regards,
Chris
