hey im a new member just wanted to say hey!!!

basically typical college sr. doing the whole school and work thing looking for a career to start!!

i just bought a 2007 rx8 grand touring model...i freaking love it. its storm blue black interior...i traded in a 98 eclipse convert. i planning many mods to the car just waiting on the norm...time and money...im getting freaking sweet graphics put on within the next month or so. planning on a turbo by summer. any suggestions on that would be great im new to mazda in general and not really sure where to start!!!

 

congrats on the car bottoms! Abbid is right, Step One is to make sure you break in that engine properly. If you take care of your new engine, it should take care of you for a LONG time. Check out www.racingbeat.com for great 'engine break-in' guidance. Racing Beat has been working with Rotary engines for a LONG time so they know what they're talking about.

If you plan on going turbo: Make sure you do your homework and use the Search button a lot. Some people here are having issues with Greddy's sytem and Mazsport recently unveiled some SWEET turbos for our cars. Yes, they're more then Greddy but they seem to be worth the extra $$ to most people. (I saw them in person recently, very good product)

There are a few superchargers out there as well that could help you out if you're determined to go FI and want something different. Pettit has a unit they've been working on and so does Axial Flow. (aka Richard Paul)

Other then that, good luck and welcome to the Cult...errr...."club"

 

thanks for the welcome, yea i did they typical break in for the car i got in a few weeks ago alread have 2500 miles i drive from va to philly alot so thats killing my milesbut its a car so guess thats gonna happen
