I've given up on pursuing a re-manufactured engine. I've brought life back into my compression. And, Vyndictive has my old midpipe now, and I need stealth again.

What did you do to get compression back? What are your latest compression numbers?

Yesterday I ran my first NASA HPDE 1 session at Firebird Raceway! I was running the midpipe and had two people in my driving group say my RX8 sounded nothing short of awesome.

I was really glad to get some positive feedback. Some video was taken so if/when I get my hands on it I'll be sure to post it.

Within the next couple days we'll be removing the pipe from my car and testing it out on a couple other RX8's for sound evaluation. Stick around for more updates.

thats good news, cant wait for the videos :)

Easy_E1 04-12-2009 06:04 PM

Videos of Flashwing blowing large fireballs out his @ss. It really sounded good gong down the straight away yesterday.

It sounded great inside the car. Not trying to jack the thread but anyone who say the RX8 is slow hasn't tried chasing one on the road course. Rotary FTW!

Zelse 04-12-2009 07:08 PM

Awesome..Can't wait to hear the results.

Striker-7 04-12-2009 08:44 PM

Please let this thing pass the 92dB @ 50ft rule (most tracks, ESPECIALLY those poor bastards at Lime Rock) with a catback system.

Passing with a Borla would be nice. :)

Zelse 04-12-2009 08:45 PM

Yeah hope so...Would be nice. :D

you should ship it to me so that I can sport it our at first AUTOX here in Colorado Springs (18 Apr). Help spread the word on BHRs new product :)

We'll be conducting sound tests when we arrive at a final product. I was told that people in the stands couldn't tell my car apart from others when I was passing them in a pack. Only when I was entering the straight by myself could anyone really hear the car.

I'm pretty sure it would meet the requirements.

Jedi54 04-13-2009 01:57 AM

My RP Supercat is officially dead so I'll be looking forward to updates.

Yeah thats a good point. AutoX starts the 19th over here and would be nice to show off BHR's new stuff to some of the 8 guys out there.

DarthRX8 04-13-2009 08:26 AM

^^C'mon BHR, Hook us up! :lol2:

Oh and ours is on the 19th too, typo.
