suggestions needed!!
I just acquired a galaxy grey 07 auto tranny a week ago. installed the k&n typhoon CAI, greddy cat back exhaust system, tein basic coil overs. What else do i need to improve the performance of my car? torque especially..
and also what do u guys think will be a great addition for the looks aspect of the car, been thinking quite alot but have got no ideas, galaxy grey is so hard to match with any other colors except for black!!

first off: Welcome to the RX8club!
congrats on the purchase of your car, I'm sure you're having a blast with it.
as far as increasing torque:
Unfortunately there is not much you can do there on our torquless wonder for a car. The RX-8 does not make much torque and simple bolt on mods will not do much to increase that figure unless you are prepared to make major modifications such as nitrous, supercharger, or turbocharger.
If you bought the car hoping for lots of torque then unfortunately you bought the wrong car.
Despite having low torque, this car can be very quick if driven properly. Keep in mind that max power is made above 5,000 RPM so that's where you'll need to be to get the most out of our engine.

guess i gotta ditch the k&n short ram then. Felt the slight decrease in power when i step into the pedal. Thanx for the helpful tips guys!!
I'm havin a blast with this baby.. learnt bout the 'above 5000rpm' side of this baby 2 days after my acquisition and smoked a turbocharged C-class on I-5 3 days after.. Damn do i love this car!!
pulled over by the cops twice already though for speeding.. i almost always never realize that i'm actually speeding in this car.
