How Much HP Can The Rx8 Make?
 
i would like know how much can the rx8 make without swapping it for a 20b?Or can it at least make 500 whp.
im asking these questions cuz im thinking of buying an rx8 and i would like to know if its at least can keep up wit the fd rx7 or be faster then it.

How much money do you have?

Do a search.

FDking 04-02-2008 09:51 PM

well money is not an issue if i do buy an rx8 overtime i would like it to acheive 500 whp thats enough for me.....i see fd rx7s wit 500 whp on a 2 rotor even 752whp and fd is an old car i want know if ithe new rx8 at least acheive the power i want from it and thats 500 whp.... if it cant acheive that i dont see whats the point of buying the rx8 if it cant even keep up wit the old rx7

Cody Red 04-02-2008 10:04 PM

how many times can a thread like this be started?

much easier on an fd, of course.

FDking 04-02-2008 10:05 PM

yo what the hell ya cant give me a straight answer or wat?

so what im concluding is that the new rx8 cant keep up wit the old fd rx7 thats a shame then

NaarLeven 04-02-2008 10:31 PM

Im sure the RX8 could keep up in one way or the other, perhaps in a ingress & egress competition.

FDking 04-02-2008 10:33 PM

ya can delete this thread cuz im goin wit the fd rx7 cuz its faster and i dont need to swap it for a 20b to be fast unlike the rx8 it needs a 20b to be fast... even wit the greddy turbo that is out for the 8 is still slower then a fd oh well

RedefineRX8 04-02-2008 11:08 PM

dun dun dun... another troll bites the dust. dun dun dun

nycgps 04-02-2008 11:23 PM

Another moron bites the dust.

Without the Turbo, 13B-REW is nothing but garbage.

he calls himself FDKing and ask about Rx8 ... what a troll.

U cant even Search for answers ?
U cant even delete your own post ?

U failed @ life, U dont deserve a car.

Get lost.

HiTMaNN 04-03-2008 02:25 AM

Yo man cuz 500 hp is like fer shizzle needed to rep mah set. Yah I said it Brooklyn what!

Flashwing 04-03-2008 07:43 AM

I've only been in the automotive community a few years but I seem to run into two types of people.

People who want to build their car for a certain level of performance (autocross, drag race, road course etc etc).

People who want to build a dyno queen.

Now, which one of those two do you think concerns themselves with how much HP an RX8 can make? Sorry but WHP is only part of the package.

mbrule6465 04-03-2008 08:50 AM

Flashwing, I know I've told you this before but your car looks fantastic!

mysql 04-03-2008 09:07 AM

people don't realize that there is a huge difference between streetable hp and dyno queen horse power.

On pump gas with the renesis, I think we're going to be seeing somewhere just below 380 whp. It's hard to go much further without risking detonation.

If you have 110 octane and spray meth and have ice and giant fans blowing on your intercooler while doing a dyno in the middle of winter, your horse power can be as high as you dare go. But making 600 whp outside of that on a sunny day with 93 octane gas is unlikely.

kersh4w 04-03-2008 09:53 AM

i have a 726whp rx8 on a mustang dyno. i used mazsports type 2 turbo.

it can be done FDking. dont listen to these losers.

rotarygod 04-03-2008 09:55 AM

^Now that's funny!

The RX-8 may not be able to keep up with the FD initially. Fortunately it's never long before an FD breaks down which will give the RX-8 plenty of time to catch back up and pass it!
