$*$*$RX-8 Mod help(CannonBall)$*$*$
 
Hey guys i have just bought a used mazda RX-8 and i want to put some mods on it because i am going to do the gumball 3000, so there for i need some help with power! So i am thinking of a turbo but i dont know witch one is the most effective for the price. i dont know if there is a twin turbo that i can get or what but price is not a factor. But because i am going to have to go up against ferraris and such i want to have about 400 Hp to help me kill them and make them look like sh** and a waste of money so can you guys help me out!

Gumball 3000....
 
Just push "left/left/up/down/reset".

That will get you to the secret "triple-turbo" screen.

Your welcome, dude! :rofl:

You are going to need a 3 rotor 20b engine for that kind of power.

All you need is one of these and those lint traps you put on the end of your laundry tub hose:

Woo Hoo! Gumball rally, meet Dysenisis.

You could also go for the SSR/SFR turbo which will get you something like 330whp.

There really isn't much you can do to the stock engine, at the most turboed 8's get 280hp

you're not going to beat a ferrari in an 8 unless the driver sucks ass

Howdy1606 04-03-2006 07:15 AM

Ok guys thanks for being a SMART ASS about every thing, all i want was just so Fing help on what i need for my RX-8. i dont care if i have to buy a new motor or what. so thinks guys for being sooo Mature!

rodrigo67 04-03-2006 07:22 AM

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...

https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...8&page=1&pp=15

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

http://videos.streetfire.net/search/...8C420FB28A.htm

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...

Ya, dont mind them. The people here at rx8club are mostly mad because of our slow cars so they take it out on noobs.

Why lie about being in the Gumball to get that help? Also, how do you go from having $1000 to spend a week ago to now having unlimited funds?

cleoent 04-03-2006 01:11 PM

Ike does have a valid point.

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.)

BlueEyes 04-03-2006 01:28 PM

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?

RotoRocket 04-03-2006 02:43 PM

Wow.

Ike and I agree.

Buy Enron!!!

Howdy1606 04-03-2006 10:15 PM

It is called a trust fund my Friend.

Ike 04-03-2006 10:30 PM

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?
