...why auto?
... I remembered in a while ago RotaryGod explains why the 4-port renesis might be better for the 6-port. I know for those who owns a manual, we run a six port renesis. Any inputs Canzoomer? RotaryGod? any gurus?

...by the way, would this topic be a better post in the aftermarket post area?

Originally posted by Japan8 I dunno about that... and there is wonderful review info in a mag I have... I neglected to add it in this thread but I'll add it now for all of you auto owners' benefit... But, I agree with the super charger. I think that is the best form of F/I for the 8. IMHO. Plus, no lag in waiting for it to spool up. When I talked to RE-AMEMIYA's shop they expressed that they were haveing a hard time keeping the power stable due to the various ECU's in Japan. So, the one they had was running about as stable as they could get now. So they couldn't market the Greddy Kits at this time. Personlay I am more intrested in their N/A tuning..I would mind haveing 300 N/A WHP. I watched the Spirits RX8 take out some very stiff competion with just 233 N/A whp.. But, when I order my parts from RE-AMEMIYA..I will find out more info.. 9-K Rever |
Wow... with just 233hp. I'd love to see 300hp N/A.
Keep us all posted on the RE Amemiya parts. I'll be honest and say that I am fairly anti-JDM parts IF an equally performing part can be bought locally. Simply JDM stuff is overpriced (for various reasons). BUT... I'm curious as to what Amemiya can come up with. |
Wow, same thing again?
Is says right on the webpage its not out yet. I asked them a while back about the kit and they are hoping on June. Like mentioned they are not too happy with the tunning on the ECUs it takes time to get it right since we are talking RE-ROMMED Original ECUs. The target price of this kit and the Blitz Compressor kit are $4000-$4500 as I mentioned before. The 50,400 yen as mentioned far above also known as the $450 (yeah I wish we are at 106) is the removal of the speed limiter and a coupld small changes to the ECU ONLY! |
I wonder how much "work" he is really doing on this, as it is a joint project with GReddy, and it has been said that they essentially did all the development work. Well either way, at least auto owners have something to cheer about... if they wish to void their warranty...

But I have more faith in RE-Amemiya working on this then some other tuners. I can't wait to hear about the fineshed product. |
only a 60 hp increases, seems kinda low doesnt it ??
still nice though :) |
Actually RE Amemiya isn't doing much work on the Auto Turbo project... according to a Rotary tuner mag. The majority of the work...the essential work is being done by Greddy/Trust.
|
would the 260 be to the wheels or to the flywheel?
|
almost a year old and you brought it up :)

AT TURBO KIT 498,000 Would come to around $4,500 right? Just clearing out the confusion on the price. |

Are they selling this turbo now or what?

.. Something will be out pretty soon. Some friends decided to fly there and speak to Mr. Amemiya himself. And they are pretty close to a finish product (2 week to 3 week time frame), something like a version 2 of some sort. I was also told that I have to send my ECU to Japan for reprogramming. And that means about a week in the shop. You folks in the states could probably start calling the reps about then if you are still interested.
Oh yes.. the ECU programming includes the removal of any speed limiters / fuel cuts and apparently starts the fans alot soon... this will help with engine cooling. |
oh crap, that sounds awesome, I may have to go this route in a few years after all :)
|
I just hope he has time to do the work.. Apparently my friends said there's a ton of RX7s on the lot just waiting for him to tune it (This guy is like some rotary god) . I am keeping my fingers cross.
