i bought fujitsubo before i converted to turbo...... so i think i should better get a straight flow exhaust.... dont confused with my word, fujitsubo is definitely work superbly on my car... When i dyno at Links before i converted to turbo, dyno shows that my car HP is the highest among the RX8 that has been there (2nd is boykichap)..... My high end rev from 7k to 9k RPM is so ideal and healthy....... I think that is due to my fujitsubo...... Links dyno at 3rd gear not like others......My hp that time is 168hp...... If its 4th gear i'll get 190hp above, maybe 200hp....

I would still choose Fujitsubo over HKS...... Fujitsubo has a special design that allow better torque at low RPM......

Think I read somewhere in this forum that someone already installed the Legamax. Would love to hear the sound of it in person. Any ideas who bought it?

New engine is about 50K with gear box and all. There are a few of them lying around malaysia warehouses that we don't know about. The problem is finding someone who can install it properly....hahahah

Hello all,

I have almost purchased an RX8 but I am a bit concerned about the recalls which have been issued for this car.

I have read in the forum that C&C may help the RX8 owners with this. Does anyone have any experience with rectifying the defects in the recall notices?

Would appreciate any help in this matter

The recalls are regarding the heat shield and lower arm bars...... It's not a big deal actually... My car is among the recall list but didnt felt any problem.... C&C would help you to get the recall parts and install without charge...

Go to the car dealers..... Check whether recond car got aftermarket exhaust or not.... Tell that you'll exchange with them plus RM2k.... See whether they are tempted......
