I think it's still being notice because I mentioned something about the RX8 only because it was using a turbo from HKS. But maybe it couldn't handle it or maybe it was just pushed that hard.

So I guess maybe some engine modifications would not hurt in order to support that power lol. What would be the difference between his HKS 500hp to that of esmeril 500hp, tune? You can't drive daily with 500hp on the renesis right, lol?

I don't balme the seller for the issues but I know some people think that some people got ripped off or some ****. I think the car was magnificant but I now see why the majority of people use Greddy and MM tunes/upgrades lol.. Just kidding.

Hello Guys, the car still in NJ, getting retouch and tuned, I only put 150 mile in the pass 5 years..., still running strong, but now i'm thinking doing a 3 rotor by next summer.
