Saw these two power mod options on ebay (although the second one is linked to a company in Orlando), just wondered if the +25bhp gain is nothing more than hot air, or a possible gain.

As a recent buyer into the wonderful world of RX8 ownership, I'm a bit nervous of toying too much with the set up other than proven modifications.

Thanks guys

doesnt even have an 8 listed

Yeh, I did drop them a line to query that, yet it mentions the 8 in the title!! Strange one!!

I understand from talking to a local Rotary Specialist here that the biggest power improvement comes from a turbo or supercharger, are there any smaller gains to be had that are less expensive? ie. chip etc??

Thanks

To be named later

You guys are such skeptics!!

surfbluesurf will see a performance increase and possibly a couple of HP increase from the first one listed.........

.............simply because of the K&N filter.

The SprintBooster actually magnifies the signal from the pedal to the computer, and makes the car accelerate faster at lower pedal pressure - kind of like stamping the pedal instead of gently pressing it.
Weird concept, but quite popular in Japan......

you can get a mid pipe or some pulleys i have the mazsport ignition solution and see a nice difference with that or the cobb access port is nice as well. i also have the aem cold air intake but that is more for sound then power(you only get 1-3 hp form an intake)

636

Yeah just get an electric turbo im making 300+ whp with it , get the performance chip cause it saves gas. Why spend 6k+ on a turbo when u can get my set up?

If you took my post seriously then go sell your 8 right now and buy a civic thanks.

Thanks StealthTL, may give it a go, although I'm still hankering after the turbo option - I NEED MORE POWER!!!
