Sorry for the delay guys, the weather has been rainy and has limited the amount of top end tuning I have done. However I have been doing alot of drivability tuning and I would say we have picked up some midrange power. Also the 1/3-1/2 throttle toe in at 3-4k rpm feels like the torque has picked up abit as well. The high speed cruise is 14.6-15.1 afr's and silky smooth. I will be working on the top end this weekend and should hit the dyno by the first of the week. I have a couple of different top end Timing/Fuel stratagies developed from our road racing days and look foward to seeing how the RX-8 responds to maps based those results. Thanks for your continued support and trust me, I want to get this done and show positive results A.S.A.P. so I can start shipping units! thanks,Scott

If the Inter-X doesn't work out, you can always go to Puerto Rico and drop in a 20B

I should have studied tuning in college - it seems they, (Scott & others), have all the fun.

Nope.
He listed his mods and he's using a microtech EMS. The Interceptor IS a microtech.

Scott,

I don't know if you saw, but there was a post about a link on the Motec site about the optimum afr for power with NA Renesis engines runing their ECU. They said that .92-.93 lamda was the best for power, which you may already know, but this post is pretty interesting

http://www.motec.com/helpfiles/Formu...20Strategy.pdf

just thought this might be useful for ya.

Sweet.. Thankx for the update. I just hope that this thread isnt a complete letdown. I have a feeling that it wont be though. For the brief time that I had my POS CZ installed, I noticed a nice difference. My idle went straight to hell though.
