It does work. The problem is the RX8 has a larger air flow than a piston engine.

It will work on the 8 but you won't see the big gains as piston engines.

You will get 1/2 mpg or more. HP will be a little.

There's the problem your friend has a CIVIC Hahaha

Ok, you sir, are an idiot.

Let's say hypothetically, it does create a tornado effect... it'll be useless when it hits the throttle body since the butterfly will disrupt the tornado anyways. FAIL!

This is a joke right? LOL

No offense to the creator of this thread really... but I think you should do some research on engines especially the rotary before you start to 'Mod' your car.

There are really no gainful mods for our cars under like $600.00.

Plus, the 8 has screens in the intake i believe for the purpose of specifically aiming the incoming air, so this may actually hinder performance...

correct me if I am wrong.
