Howdy...if money is not a concern, you should check out the threads by rx8pr. He's got a couple of 8's down in puerto rice that are running several different setups. Turbo's, 3 rotor and others. There is a vid somewhere here that shows one of his 8's running a 8 sec 1/4 over 200 mph. I had thought he mentioned that he would start selling kits for rx8's and they were starting at 15K for a complete kit.
Too lazy to look up all the info, but it's here if you search...
here's just one of his threads...

ok, I got bored and looked for some...make that a 6 sec 1/4 at 204mph

http://videos.streetfire.net/search/...3AE44F4DB7.htm
the top 3 vids are rx8pr's...He's now using a 3 rotor turbo 20b making 650hp as a daily driver.

Now go spend some money...

Looks like he's edited the "$1000" part out of his original post.
Howdy Are you an Aggie? (Sort of a pointless question to anyone in College Station, but I suppose there are exceptions.)
No, he didn't. The 1000 dollars is from another thread he started.

OMG...is there some sort of filter we could implement on this site for posts like this?
You're either a moron or a liar, take your pick. Someone with a sizable trust fund wouldn't buy a used RX-8 and then try to make it as fast as a Ferrari unless they're a moron... The entry fee alone for the Gumball 3000 is 3 times the value of your car. So which is it?
