not to sure if this was posted before but the video consists of 3 different rx-8's who had just installed the k&n typhoon system on..not to sure but i think only 2 of them had borla exhausts..any way, they sound sick! especially the 6 speed manual...

I took sound clips from three RX-8s and in the order on the sound clip they are:

1. Auto w/ K&N Typhoon intake
2. 6-spd w/ K&N Typhoon intake
3. 6-spd w/ K&N Typhoon intake and Borla exhaust

 

OMG, i think i just wet my pants.

 

Great job!!!!

 

oh i knew that car looked familiar...good **** speed...

 

Very well made movie!
Wish I had skills like that!

Good stuff........Thanks for the clips, but the K&N is so much louder in person!

 

I need a towel.....

 

Thanks so much for that video , that is the best representation of all combinations intake/exhaust that I have ever seen on any message board.

Thanks for taking the time to put that together.

I am ordering my intake immediately.

 

I think I'm gonna ' ' SPLURT ' '

 

Damn! I knew I should have ScotchGuarded that video. :p

I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. Have you seen the flaming Borla video ?

Right now I'm working on a new video to show what it is like to drive an RX-8 with a Canzoomer Stage 1 fuel controller. So keep an eye out for that one.

 

that last one with the borla sounds absolutely bootyful...wow very impressed

 

that i gotta see...

 

I agree w/ chingling... I like the last one w/ the borla exhuast cuz it has a deeper sound to it. Great job.

 

Guys - Outstanding work putting that together!!! Extremely helpful!!! Awesome job!!!

 

I don't know WTF is going on but I can't hear the vid for the K&N.

Is it just me?

 

yea its just you..check your settings...it sounds sick azz hell

 

Try downloading the latest version of Quick Time.

 

Thanks Speed Racer! I guess that was it.

Great vid guys.

 

wow nice.... btw are you having any idle trouble?

 

Actually I only had the intake in for about a week. When I received my Canzoomer Stage 1 I pulled out the K&N intake because Maurice wanted to look into the K&N before he would recommend the combo.

Right after I installed the intake the car did have problems with idling but it seemed to go away after a days worth of driving. Hopefully someone who has used it more extensively will jump in and give their opinion.

 

when you pop your hood and look at your intake can you see your fan? did you remove the plastic tray that was under the stock intake? If you did remove that tray that may be causing the rough idle.

 

sounds awesome. i definitly like the K&N with the Borla. Its amazing the difference between the sounds from the front of the car and from the back...two totally different sounds!! I like it!

 

mikeb,

Yes, the plastic tray was left in place and the car had problems idling right after the intake was installed. The problem seemed to go away after the ECU had a chance to self adjust.

 

How long did it take for your idle to "fix itself" as you described?

I had my K&N on for almost a week but the idle was pretty rough on occasion and even caused it to stall once or twice. I checked and rechecked all the hose connections and found no obvious leaks. I did contact K&N and they mentioned that they have received a couple complaints about stalling with the Typhoon and RX-8.
