I think from what i can understand the M'z tune is a FI tune. Will we finally see a super/turbo.charged RX-8?
edit: or not, the M'z tune MX-5 is listed under "concept",where as the RX-8 is already a (production model), so probably a C-Spec RX-8. I think we'll see a Mazdaseed MX-5 first.

It's listed as Mazda RX-8 Mazdaspeed M'z Tune instead of Mazdaspeed RX-8 M'z Tune. Was that intentional?
Below that is the Mazdaspeed 6 listed as Mazdaspeed Atenza.
Renesis_8, how did you come to the assumption that M'z Tune may be FI related?

Look at what they wrote about it:
11. Mazda RX-8 Mazdaspeed M'z Tune (production model)
This fully customized version of the high-performance RX-8 boasts increased sports car appeal through modifications to raise comfort levels and driving feel. Mazda E&T has taken advantage of its long relationship with the base model to offer a tuner that makes driving safe and fun, both on and off the track. The Mazda RX-8 Mazdaspeed M'z Tune will make any owner proud.
The phrase that jumps out at me is "through modifications to raise comfort levels and driving feel." To me that says suspension and new seats, nothing about increased performance or power. Perhaps a production version along the lines of the Prodrive-tuned RX-8 in the UK?

Damn that yellow Mazdaspeed Axela, complete with yellow & black racing buckets, looks hot!

- Unique MS body areo parts
- MS lightweight flywheel
- MS exhaust
- MS brake pads
- Upgraded suspension bits
- Upgraded oil cooler
