Hmmmmm. See below \/
That's not what I meant; I really DID audition for Disturbed a few years ago. Drove to Chicago in my RX-8 with my 6-string bass and hammered it out. Obviously, I didn't get the job but I had a lot of fun, met the band, met some other really cool people. In hindsight I am glad they didn't hire me because I would not have custody of my two kids and I certainly wouldn't be serving the needs of my beloved RX8Club friends.
More often, I get compared to Michael Chiklis from "The Shield".

BHR Team: Working hard or hardly working?
That is the question...

Easy and I balance the notion of passing the ball back and forth and working together, whatever is necessary. To on-lookers we may seem like a couple of scatter-brained fools but if you remove AZ's front bumper cover and look at the cleanliness of the joint effort and the result of Easy fabbing of a few pieces, you'd see what I mean.
I am not sure if I can speak for Easy on this (and he would never admit to it, anyway) but he and I are starting to trust one another on these installs and we only had 1-2 errors that were easily remedied on the spot. The car runs pretty good, aside from some minor tuning gaps, but MM will handle that. I am pretty sure pix will soon be posted, too.

Easy has deep rooted issues with "trust" and "commitment"
It's okay Eric, you're in a "safe zone" here and amongst friends.

I would argue as to the power benefits of a header or midpipe, alone, but they certainly change the tuning latitude when they are used.
With almost 180 BHR Ignition Systems in the field and nearly universal acclaim from those who are using them I woulda thought THAT product (whether BHR's or Esmeril's) would have been more popular.
Either way, the midpipe development forges ahead and we are very confident everyone will like what they see/hear.

The other aspect is there's no risk of unburnt fuel clogging the cat or having to worry about excess pre-mixing or oil injection doing the same. Most of the stuff which makes the rotary perform better or last longer is hazardous to the environmental parts of the car.
But yes, these benefits would only be truely realized with the COBB accessPORT which can tune to take advantage of your modifications.
That aspect is one of the most common misunderstandings with modified cars. Simply adding intakes or exhaust might yield some gains but until the car is tuned for those modifications you're not using them to their full benefit.
This is why BHR stands behind the accessPORT being one, if the the best bang for your buck with the RX8.
