Ok so here look, idk if im in the correct forum or w.e
im 17, just had a 05 tiburon v6 auto
but *** that and traded for a 6mt 04' rx8
black grand touring with aem intake
i dont know that much about cars but i am in a class so im learning more and more
first off how often do you guys add oil/do oil changes
also does taking traction control off improve horsepower/fuel economy?
i have future plans such as some nice light black rims, headers and exhaust, short throw, lighter flywheel and performance clutch, some brembos, bigger throttle body, and various body stuff?
im expecting like 280 hp?
and then are all mazda rx8 covered by that extended warranty, so mine should be?
thanks i really appreciate it

You add 10 quarts of oil every 50 miles.

Turning off traction control will give you an extra 25whp but only when wet.

You will get near 500whp if you get some nice light black rims, headers and exhaust, short throw, lighter flywheel, and performance clutch, some brembos, and bigger throttle body, and various body stuff.

No, warranties are not covered for young enthusiasts who don't use the search feature.

Better off reading the major horsepower section if you want to see what it takes to make 280hp.

and as a youngster who has little driving experience, NEVER turn off your traction control unless you are NOT on a public road. (in fact I would say that pretty much applied to most people. Whats the point of turning off such a key safety feature. Just turn it off on tracks and auto x days etc....)

i think ^^^ meant to say DON'T turn off your traction control on public roads. This car can get sideways easily with it off and if you don't know what you're doing... Which you don't.

280hp??? You have a lot of reading to do.

You guys all suck, you guys were suppose to go along with me and make him really think that turning off the traction control will help and 500whp is achievable with bolt-ons...

Unless you have been driving carts since you were 5, you don't need any more power
