speed force is a pretty reputable company when it comes to developing turbo kits.

They stand behind thier work and have great customer service.

"When you purchase the RX-8 turbo system you can be assured you are getting the best turo system on the market.We are so confident about this that we offer a full one year warranty on all parts included in the kit except for our 321SS header which comes with a lifetime warranty."

Hey they called it a "turo" LOL!:p

With high compression renesis rotors. I don't think it would survive 10k rpms under boost.
