I just saw it on their site, it says coming soon. no price yet, but damn, look at the pic

judging from the price of everything else they sell... it'll probably be around 8-9 k

 

it looks like they just placed two turbos in the engine bay.........

 

you are correct....

 

seems very unnecessary.. though im a huge fan for twin turbos.... i dont think the rennie is twin turbo friendly.... single turbo is good enough for our 8's.

forgot to add, isnt the throttle body suppose to connect to something? or maybe this is some kind of new design...

 

It's obviously in the mock-up stages, but a twin turbo Renesis isn't nessasary right now, considering there are kits that make full boost before 3500 rpm and can generate over 400-rwhp on a single snail.

But I guess for blind factory twin snails looks good....

 

The guy who's workin on that car supposedly did the install for mine. This thing is also supposed to be ready before the auto show at BCplace in less than two months. I'm going by the shop tomorrow and if I see it, I'll see if I can get some pics

 

The point of twin turbo is that they go in max boost at different rpm ranges. 1 at some real low rpm like say 2,000+ and the other a bit higher at like say 4,500+. You also have to synchronize them properly to get the max benefit.

Right now the MazdaManic Greddy upgrade turbo is the one to beat. Go low end and can keep going to 8,000RPM.

 

The upgrade is the one I will have. That was my first choice considering everything else available. As for the twin, I'm guessing they're just doing it for bragging rights. Justin told me it'd be like ten grand.

 

Does.. not.. compute..

Do you mean "bling factor"?

 

this is pretty interesting.

although i don't find a twin turbo necessary, i'd like to see the outcome of this setup.

 

Once we have a Renesis making upwards of what, 600 hp? Then we can talk about twin turbo (sequential or parallel).. At present they are just dead weight.. But it certainly looks nice..

 

I think its cool. I dont think i would do it but i wanna see how it turns out.

 

Don't those turbos appear to be the same size? Which seems to be a little large for the renesis?

 

yeah the turbo are the same size

 

Exactly... and the greddy turbo is really small to begin with and it has the same spool time as the MM upgrade. I see 6 psi at 3k rpm. So uhhh... seems pointless. Added complexity without any gain is not a good move.

 

but... are there any other companies trying to develop a twin setup for the 8? If noone tries then noone knows... ya know like that saying.... you miss 100% of the shots you never take?

 

very unique....for an rx8 that is. Can't wait to see the outcome.

 

looks pointless.

 

you will probably just waste energy powering the other turbo

 

i would have to say that its over kill. a single turbo provides more than enough boost to the renny if properly sized. and as far as i can see, those are the same size, so its not even a sequential twin turbo set up which would be nice, but like i said, its over kill. with the GT3071 from MM, you are perfectly set up for boost real early, and good through the rpm range. looks cool though.

 

that looks so beastly hahaha

 

Someone will buy it. Works or not. But they need to relocate a lot of stuff for them Turbs to fit in there.

 

I just love that stormy blue color....sigh

 

I'd be more excited if they were using 3 turbos, 4 would be too many though.
