It is not true, Turdblown has dyno results to prove how much HP a renny cane make. And according to Elliot many people are running their turbo kits making mad power on a Renesis, those people just live under rocks and only drive those RX-8's in Area 51 apparently.

Yeah the boosted renny is dead reliable.

Another blown Renesis in the F/S section.

I do, I remember seeing videos of it afterwards all busted up doing donuts in the dirt with no air filter on the engine. And then it was put up for sale,

Wasn't that the one with about 3 feet of fender gap above the tires?

And also the one that traded hands like 6 times with no progress?

Hey, wot u guys suggest is a good brake upgrade? For the street btw, I figure I got an extra 100kg in the front now and the suspension is beefed already..

A buddy just built this using my old Rene side and centre plate with some stock hb Cosmo 13b housings. 5port exhaust Rene/re hybrid.

Heard this in person last nite, man it's loud with the webber intake. He's pretty much slapped it together to see how it runs, now he's gonna put the Rene intake on it with aftermarket ECU etc.

Its got some *****
