Used Interceptor-X EMS for sale $1250.
See this link for its description and retail price for a new unit. Keep in mind that this is in US dollars and does not include the shipping price. so basically a new unit shipped to Singapore would cost in and around $2700 SGD.
http://www.mazsport.net/shop/index.p...22&prevstart=0
See this link here for the description by the tech who actually designed the Interceptor-X.
https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-aftermarket-performance-modifications-23/interceptor-x-n-cars-69795/
Let me state now that this unit is used and I myself bought it as part of a kit from the states. The interceptor-X is the in-house brand by Mazsport and is essentially a Microtech ECU that is modified specifically for the RX8. For the uninitiated, a Microtech is a half-standalone ECU and is a compromise between a piggyback ECU like the E-Manage Ultimate and a full standalone ECU like the Motech. See this link which explains it https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...or-x+microtech
As I understand it, the piggyback ECU is primarily there to force your car's stock ECU into following a different set of rules when it comes to Air Fuel Ratio, Ignition timing, etc in an attempt to make more power from your car. The main drawback here is that it is still bound by the parameters set by your stock ECU - hence it limits how far you can push your car. You can argue that to push your car any further than that stock parameters, a lot of work strengthening the engine is required anyway...but in the same logic - the stock parameters might be very conservative anyway to begin with as manufacturers dont want us pushing the car more than those 'safety margins' so there are less warranty claims. Believe what you want but as someone who does not give a **** about warranty anyway (mine is void ) - my main concern is getting the most out of my car.
A standalone ECU in comparison like the Motech allows you to override completely the engine management functions of your stock ECU. Which also means that YOU get to set the parameters as you see fit and allows you to push your car to even further lengths provided your engine can take it. As someone willing to come out to tune their car - I personally know and accept what the risks are of tuning your engine. Believe me when I say that I've been thru more than what most people will have happen to them when it comes to tuning your engine - but I'm still here and I'm still getting my ride tuned as I see fit! So a standalone might seem to be the best possible way and for some people it is...but then again the price tag will range from $6k to $10k.
The half-standalone ECU like the Microtech takes the performance aspects of your stock ECU (like AFR, Ignition timing, etc) and allows the Microtech to run it independantly of the stock ECU. This means that you will gain the benefits of being able to push your engine further than the stock parameters. This is of course again is subject to how much your engine can take. The other pointless stuff like the airconditioning, ABS, etc are left to the stock ECU to manage as they were originally intended to. So in essence you will get the best of both worlds with a half standalone. This unit is available in Singapore but is sold at $3.5k at a well known garage here. No names will be mentioned so as not to step on anyone's toes.
Let me say now that all 3 options have their good points and their bad points - it is really up to you what you want from your car. The piggyback or EMU for example would not give you any CEL's or at least not as much as say a Microtech or Motech. Some say that as it is still within the stock parameters of the car, it is smoother especially if you use your car as a daily drive. The Microtech and Motech systems will allow for more power (dyno'd charts place the RX8 based on a Greddy turbo with EMU vs an Interceptor-X Greddy Turbo kit around 50 rwhp less) but you will have to live with a CEL for example.
Here are some threads which discuss the Interceptor-X. Note that it is not all biased towards the Interceptor-X so draw your own conclusions

Interested parties pls text me on 98273621. The unit is now available and off my car as I am planning to sell my car. I'll keep this unit on the local forums till the end of this week (30th Sep 2007) - after which I will open it to the US For Sale thread.
Lastly I am no expert on EMS and have basically got all these information from contacting the US based tuners like Mazsport, MazdaManiac, MySql, etc for their input and help on tuning my ride when I first decided to use an EMS system. Do your own research and reading to verify my post if need be.
Thanks for reading!
