I think the best upgrade for ANY rx8 would be to get a new car. I mean, I love my rx8, but only because of it's aggressive look, double wishbone suspension, and 4 doors to carry around my kids. Although, the downfall of these cars is it's horrible torque and useless horsepower in high RPMs. I realized that the controversy about the actual wheel horsepower for rx8's are devastating...150(?) hp to the wheel? I can't seem to find a way for the pro's to outweigh the cons....My suggestion is don't waste your money modding "the failure of mazda".

I love the 8 just as much as everyone else here, but I dont see a justification for paying 27k for a car that has no horsepower to match the price. im just tryin to help some ppl out before they make mistakes.

to the original poster.: Sorry about everyone hijacking your thread to deal with some lame *** troll.
as for upgrades, the next thing i would recommend you do is either get the RP short shifter or look at some swaybars or suspension options. flywheel is a good mod but it is a little pricey for the install.
we now return you to your regularly scheduled trolling.
