Hi I was wondering what you guys think are the best brands aftermarket and which give out the best performance?

Twinturbo2800

almost everything out for the rx-8 gives little to no power increase....


but some good brands:

racingbeat
hks
greddy
rotary extreme


........just a few

That's a simple question. I believe no company is better than the other. Your car's performance will reflect how much research, time and energy you've put into it.

rev-2-9k

racing beat

wakeech

how about not relying on a brand name, and looking at how the part you want is actually made and functions??

there's a lot of garbage made that has a big name on it.

Why look to Japan when you can look in your own backyard? Racing Beat.

AQA101

Mazdaspeed, probably.

because alot of ppl like to keep their car JDM

rotarygod

If I wanted a JDM car, I'd have bought one from there and shipped it here. Actually that makes no sense because Mazda already did that for us. Besides, we drive on the other side of the car and the road here in the U.S. What do we need to stay JDM, right hand drive conversions? You really can't get more JDM than buying a Japanese made car. We'd have to change our emissions controls too. JDM spec is so overrated it is pathetic. Emphasis on the last word.

2 reasons:

Reason #1: They are too damn expensive to get in the U.S.
Reason #2: None of those companies offers anything that is better than what you can get here under a different name! Sorry to disappoint. Name brands mean nothing. Results do.

RE may have been tuning rotaries for decades but so has Racing Beat. They are 30+ years old. What advantage do those guys have that no one else in the world has? Maybe a few more ticks on the geiger counter but that's it.

Now I am sad

rotarygod

Why are you sad Hymee? You are a prime example of one of the "results" people. You don't have a big name brand to rely on but I think you'll be one of the best RX-8 tuners out there. You're already on your way. Be happy!

I just was hoping to be first on the list.

I will name you on top of my list.

I want your IDcaller, your supercharger and any tuning kit for that matter. Oh when a stone fry though the hole and puncture my oil cooler - there will be 2 MazdaSpeed oil coolers that need Hymee Grill protection

Taka, you can be as close to the top of the list as I can fit you! I already got 3 in front of you for the blower. There are already some Scan Tools out there with the Hymee brand on them. And as for the exhaust.... D'oh. What was that brand you got again But, I could put you at the top of the carbon fibre exhaust pod list - there is a vacancy at the top spot!

And one more thing... "When the stone fly" You know - like Flied Lice Hope I don't get called a racist for that one. With some Aussie in you by now you should get a chuckle out of that!

Cheers,
Hymee.

takahashi

You see my "Chinlish" is working perfectly there!
