1) Start with at least $10,000 in the bank
2) Pull your motor and get it rebuilt for forced induction
3) Purchase a complete turbo setup
4) Have someone that is qualified modify the turbo setup to work properly
5) Install it perfectly with all top quality hardware
6) Tune it perfectly
If at any point there is the slightest flaw, your engine blows, so pull the engine and send it back out for rebuilding for another $5k+
If every last item is perfect on the first try, enjoy your turbocharged RX-8 for 10,000 to 20,000 miles before the engine blows anyway from side seal spring heat damage.
And the races are at the race track, I'm guessing you haven't tried there yet.
