RX8Club,

Selling a Black on red 2004 turbo (auto) with 50k+ miles on it for 5,000 in cash.

The Turblown unit has a couple thousand miles on it or less with Cobb tuned by Jeff at Mazda Maniac. It runs great and makes 250rwp @7-8psi eyeballing the boost gauge.

I now have the title and the car was just registered 30 days ago. It will not pass smog on the next checkup. Car runs good but has hot starting issue. I'm assuming it's due to injectors staying on too long after shutdown. Power steering does not work.

Price of Turblown kit and accessories alone are worth more than the car.

Pros:
-100 rwp more than stock
-Plenty of room for 300+rwp (tranny limiting)
-As quiet as stock at idle and cruise, no droning at all
-Premixing may eliminate the issue with current pre 2009 Rotary design
-Faster than a 6spd

Cons:
-Transmission slow to shift and annoying (recommend Level10) or go manual.
-Runs hotter than stock in stop and go and I can feel the water vapor (steam) coming out of the overflow during spirited driving in 90 degree heat.
-Won't pass visual
-Loud (from wastegate) at WOT which is a little F&F for my tastes
-You have to premix
-Faster than a six speed but still slower than a minivan

Vehicle is not registered and the title was not mailed to me due to incorrect address. A bond is needed for someone to title this car in there name.

Chris @ Turblown custom fits them to the vehicle before shipping. See pictures

The total sum = $12,200 parts + 11,000 car, NOT including installation costs, shipping fees, taxes and vehicle shipping. This may run an additional ~$4,000. So total costs for me has been ~$26,000.

Car is in down town San Diego ready for local pickup only. Will get pictures of actual car if requested. There are no surprises on this car, no accidents except some typical light scratches and a few minor door dings. I also have all the OEM parts.
