30 whp...yikes !

I would start :

1. Racing Beat Ram Air Duct
2. Racing Beat Revi Air Intake
3. Hi-flow Cat (Random Technology/SR Motorsports/RP Performance)
4. Cat Back Exhaust (HKS, RB, Greddy, Borla, etc.)
5. Canzoomer piggy back ECU. Tune the hell out of it.

Might not get you 30 whp, but it might get you close.

RX8's usually dyno around 180 whp.

http://www.canzoomer.com/CZ-Performance.html. They have the piggyback ECU & Random Tech. Hi-flow cat. Also keep an eye out in the "For Sale" section below as they have used Canzoomers (with cable & Canscan) for much less.

Have no idea where you live. In most places you will have a Mazda Rotary specialist. Down below you have regional sections. Might be better off asking in that forum for a good place. Probably get a more precise answer.

Off Topic Question:
If you use a piggyback computer and tune it for a stock RX8, do you need to retune after adding a hi-flow cat or intake?

You should runa dyno everytime you add parts. Some posters have reported that the engine leans (less fuel) out after they put on a particular part. I would throw all the "other" parts on then get the Canzoomer unit.

Several examples of the Canzoomer cars found that you do not get 25 hp from just the unit. But with all the other stuff (air intake, hi-flow cat, cat back exhaust, etc.) AND Canzoomer they have gotten around 16 to 25 whp.

The REVi does not fit with the turbo system. The REVi like the regular stock system has an air tube that goes directly into the intake manifold. On the turbo kit the air goes in but right away snakes over to the passenger side fenderwell (the turbo is right next to the right front tire).

You can change your air/fuel ratio & advance your timing with it.

No the cat-back exhaust is exactly that, from the catalytic back. The hi-flow cat or straight pipe replaces the stock catalytic (which come with a resonator) section, than in front of that is the exhaust manifold/header.

I know somebody who offered me a used Canzoomer here in Puerto Rico about two weeks ago, if you want more information let me know. My RX8 has RB exhaust and the Revi Intake in case you want to hear it, let me know I am from Aguadilla, PR.
