to the other guy calling me an *******: i don't have problems waiting and doing a long build with everything needed to put up a turbo rx8 that will last. Think about the differential, eventually the rear axles etc for track use and you will see why the 9000$ come from. Per Mazdamaniac.com his complete turbo costs 7000$, it is easy to see other 600$ spent in gauges and controllers...
1400$ is the cost of a good differential.

Do you see where i am getting? that's minus the labor that i can luckily do in my garage. A turbo kit then won't cost less than that half that price anyway if complete
I'm not trying to offend you but i think that you're putting things in a way that doesn't consider the needed extras etc.

If you want low end torque, get a civic.
