I got 186 whp and 135 wtq. The car runs lean b/c of the RB tune and stops the car from gaining more power after 7k. I ran 2 runs, and both were identical. So at least my power is consistent.

not bad at all, at least its running and is consistent. Hopefully you can get the RB flash / AP thing solved.

I'm gonna get the dealership to fix the ecu, give me my parts that they didn't give me while it was at the body shop, and reimburse me for the tuning from MM and RB. Since they cut corners, I had to pay for their work and the tuning I couldn't get. :rant:

ok guys here are my pics from the dyno day. I wasn't able to get pictures of everyone on the dyno because I had to leave earlier than expected. The videos should great. Francesco got some good footage.

sweet man pics came out great

kick ass pics. btw that trunk brace is unreal.

yeah it looks beefy as hell, how does it feel?

Rock solid. The whole damn car, all around is solid.

^ :(...............but :) at the same time. The next tri state meet i want a ride

My 04 AT Greddy Turbo got 183 HP and 172 T, my fuel injectors and pump need to be upgraded plus i really need better cooling. Temps were getting up to 236 degrees.... not good. Jeff said with that and another tune could be easy 200 HP.

I'm just happy it runs so smooth and kicks you back in the seat lol.

Yeah man thats amazing torque you got there. What psi were you running at? Once your fuel injectors and pump are upgraded + added cooling. It will be screaming then.


So I take it hockey left with the highest hp rx8 that day?

I think mines set at 6 or 7 right now. If I want more I'd prob upgrade the tubro so I don't kill my engine again. I think he did, i didn't stay to long after mine got done -- had to come home and watch my lil one.

hahahahah WUT? I dare you to tell a dealership that youve been tampering with the ECU and demand them to reimburse you for one of the most potentiallydestructive things you can do to your car(dyno runs), hahahah

Awesome Pics Garret

I believe they are the ones who gave him the wrong year ECU or something like that.

Its already with the GM of the dealership. In Feb 09 then got the ecu from mazda, apparently. So mazda did it, apparently. But, they will reimburse me my money for the RB tune and my share of getting MM up here. From what i was told by other dealerships...my car shouldnt have been able to fire up with the 05 cali ecu...and they wouldnt touch my car b/c of what they did @ North penn imports.

Who makes this rear bar? I like the way it doesn't take up trunk space.

That'd be the wonderful people at GTSPEC.

So where are the results? Who was NA and dynoed the highest?

I cant tell if your being sarcastic or not?

wow lol.

im not lying when I tell you I was going to type the e-x-a-c-t same thing.. :wiggle:

From the pictures, it looks like it bends toward the back seat. Is it straight across?
