how is that possible? the stock coils are proven to only be able to hold around 330 whp.

mysql

that's metric whp. So about +15 whp over stock.

im looking pretty seriously into the mazsport or the ptp turbo kits, both come out to around the same price so im just trying 2 figure out which one makes more hp. it doesnt look like anyone has had a really good dyno run with the mazsport turbo yet

mysql

mazsport currently dynos the highest of any FI kit for the rx-8.

If you're looking at something that costs the same as the mazsport, it's a no brainer which you should pick.

mxwoody87

Does anyone no about the reliability of the mazsport kit?...am i just gonna end up blowing the stock seals with the power added from the kit?

mysql

no turbo kit is going to gain you reliability, however if you run the base 7-10 psi range, you should be fine.

A wise man once said to me that it is the "Endless pursuit of the perfect explosion."

imrtommy

hahaha that wise man is scott. one of the founding fathers of rx8 performance next to mazdamaniac, Rotarygod,and Swoope maybe be one as well. swoopes posts are just sometimes confusing.... or im just not smart enough to know what hes saying.

no but seriously, the mazsport kit comes with everything and saves you the hassle of picking bits and pieces from various shops.(thats why my lazy *** went with it). another reason is mazsport is making the most power but it doesn't mean other kits cant. i just went with what has already made it.

slavearm

Yes, and I can 100% confirm that Scott does stand behind his products and work. I got some of the first production runs of some of their products, and Scott has been Johnny on the Spot about replacing those with newer pieces.

That, and I think Scott said he is flying out for free and retuning my car for CA gas!

imrtommy

leaving the short midget asian out now are we? hahaha im jk. that would be awesome.

we can take scott to a strip club.(hahaha now his wife will never let him come...)

slavearm

I already paid to have Scott tune my car and shipped it to his front door to make it happen =)

Short Midget asian guy guy still needs to pay up for tuning =)

slavearm

Drive down? You can stay at my pad.

imrtommy

yeah i'd rather not ship my car but i would most definately pay for a tune. at this point from anyone that can is nice but from scott would be better.

slavearm
