so far , only things that seem to help are flywheel , pulleys , exhaust (headers , b pipe , cat back , ect. .. ) . The things that are questionable are intake , ?canzoomer ecu? and grounding wires.

I say just wait for a turbo. Shouldn't be too long ...

pulleys (maybe flywheel depending on how you think) were the only engine mods u listed titaniumgrey...but ur right, mods are limited, the car is still relatively new. patience grasshopper (look at the fd market) !!!

Don't forget the Flux capacitor that is available at any local PepBoys. That adds horspower in a linear excistence powerband correlating to the wheel inertia.

and stickers... you can always add stickers. keep in mind tho, that if you add NOS stickers and Type R stickers, it will result in a mandatory keying and possible egging from me. :P

i like to feed my RX8 a pizza every so often just because I know she's hungry and it makes her really go faster! Pizza is gud. Pepperoni really gives her some gas!

Have your engine canonized by the Pope. Then it will be Saint Renesis and have Godly HP and Torque.
