Can it divide by zero?
If not then it's not a true MS 8

Need some practice with that camera focus....Car looks go though!

doesn't the pillar gage pods mean your airbags won't work?

mysql101

weird. I know 2004 didn't have white as an available color, but I am sure by 2006 they weren't shipping Rx-8's with black washer bottles either.

mysql101

airbags aren't located there, silly.

Funny I was wondering about the black washer tank too. My 2005 White did not have a black tank. Did someone get an old black tank, or, the dreaded question, did someone paint the car?

some of the 05 white 8's did have black washer tanks, and some of them had clear tanks....all depends on the build date

take another look at your pillars. i know mine has an airbag symbol on it.

mysql101

that doesn't change that there is no airbag there.

It has airbag symbols on it but it's actually not located in the piller. It's above the piller in the roof lining.

I can't find a picture of it right now. You can go out to your car and pull off the piller, they're all clips and you'll see what I mean.

Nightfox

well actually i deployed the airbag and put the gauges there, the passenger pillar airbag is still intact

News flash. Mazdaspeed parts does not make your RX8 a Mazdaspeed RX8.

Nice 8 though .

downshift 8

what did you dyno at?

Nightfox

I dyno at 347 whp 274 ft/pd at 6800 and i just ordered some greddy pulleys because greddy recommends them before the stage 3 upgrade, they also recommend them before the stage 2 upgrade but i put the stage 2 in before i got the pulleys but it runs fine so whatever

Looks like you blew it with your dyno claim.

No printout, no 347hp.......

Nightfox

your right dude its bullshit, when i ordered the parts i asked the vendor around what i would be running and thats what he told me, never actually paid for a dyno yet, but when i got the parts that is what i was told it would dyno, ive raced it several times and was not dissapointed

ivory8

stickers give me 25 hp and 12 ft/pd of torque each. trust me, i can feel the power difference

lol none the less, nice car bro...it looks good

mysql101

Depends on your boost levels. You'll see anywhere from 240 whp to 280 whp on the greddy turbo.

It's going to be physically impossible to get 350 out of it.

I have a dumb question for all you FI folk...why not run the intake thru the front like t he MS cold air intake. I understand you run it thru a inter cooler, but wouldn't it be better to start with cooler air?

Nice car by the way
