yohji :

the 3 type of supercharger got different goodies, and type 2 is front mount instead of bottom mount. and 400hp meanes the charger itself can go up to 400hp. so far a user had brought his car up to 33x hp on wheels.

theboy , that 13b turbo engine can give out a lot of power but it has the traditional non reliable problem like the rx7 ... i think u should just get a turbo kit instead or do a 3rotor upgrade.

i may rebuild my engine with better seals soon. u want to join me ? as for turbo, i may be on for custom fabrication. experiment and c how .


btw to all stock rx8 owners out there

i suggest u guys to get a e-manage ultimate kit or any afr controller and get your afr down .. the stock afr is at 14.x which makes it extremely dangerous for our fuel ...

Bro, stock car doesn't have problem, it's just that you change the air intake and exhaust which causes the 14 AFR.......

lennon & david, how much power can a RX7 twin turbo engine give out? engine is reliable?
RX7 twin turbo engine can give 330hp max, it's more on response not top end power...... I'm not agree with wat david said, becos whether the engine last or not, really depends on the tuning and apex seal quality, then how greedy you are to push the engine to the edge.... My frens 460whp RX7 feels good after two three years, he broke LSD and driveshafts but the engine still freaking strong....

Questions on engine rebuilding and changing apex seal.

1) How much does it cost (parts and labour)?
2) How long does it take?
3) Who can do it?
4) Who has done it before?
5) When should we do it? At what milegae?
6) Pros and cons (rebuild or change engine)?

Thanks.

RX8 renesis engine.

From my search, i guess Ah Choy would be the obvious choice. Also found out that Vincent had his rebuilt right? Pls correct me if i'm wrong.

How about other questions? how much, how long and when should be done?

Thanks.
