let's help each other with solid advises
Ok guys, It's known that I'm not that actually updated with the real facts on how to improve performance on a RX8, I will somehow appreciatte your concerns and suggesting solid referals on what we all exactly need, starting from the heavy street options.
The fact we all know is that our RX8 have been under the doubt thru out many street fans of performance upgrades with out turbo and superchargers. I think we own it to each owner the best option of increasing engine management withou affecting life

PRX8: there is no real upgrade to the fuel system right now for the rX-8. You can upgrade the fuel pump or the injectors but that doesn't add performance to a car that is not turbo / Supercharged.
What are your goals? Do you want to make it faster? Improve miles per gallon?

I Dont Want To Kill My Rotary Engine
I Want To Be Able To Gain More Power Without Affecting The Engine, I Have Read Many Complaints About The Abuse To The Rotary Engine With Turbos And Supercharges, And Defenitely Love My Rx8 And Will Hate To See It Sitting In The Garage For Months For Just Seconds Of Street Playing Exitement.
Every Dream Has A Price But A Condition To The Facts Has No Regrets.
Im Looking Into The Access Port , To Learn More About This Option

PRX8: it is true, some rotaries took abuse from turbo's / superchargers BUT those kits are getting better and better and the FUEL MANAGEMENT options are now better. (accessport)
If you want more power, there is really very little you can do at this point. You have an intake, midpipe, and exhaust. That should give you a FEW more hp. Have you considered Nitrous?
Look into a possible ignition upgrade BHR Ignition Upgrade or the AccessPort.
Remember that the AccessPort CAN help you get more HP but that is NOT it's primary function. Helping the car run smoother (better idle) and helping improve the lifespan of the engine (lowering the fan temperatures), etc are some of the real benefits of the AP.

You still have a lot to learn Padewan.
Mazsport pump prevents fuel starvation on the track. That is a great upgrade!

$800 for a part that he most likely won't need, no thanks. He's looking for a bit more power, not parts for the track. 
I would have like to get the AP (Access Port) but I got a killer deal on the unichip.

every motor has only so many puffs of air in it. anything you do to increase performance by ANY significant means will shorten the engines life to some degree.
the only options you have to increase performance without adding more air(thus more fuel) are
1) precision tuning to remove the overly rich spots in the stock tune. this can result in minor performance improvements. the up side is if you do it with the AP, there are other benefits such as fan turn-on temps, OMP adjustments etc...
2) remove weight from the car, preferably rotational weight, and improve the efficiency of power delivery to the wheels. this option doesnt tend to show much tangible performance gains without getting very expensive and/or extreme in the area of weight loss
fact is, you can throw every concievable bolt on you want at the car, spending thousands of dollars doing so, and not even see 50 more horses to the wheels
for any significant performance gains in the power realm, you have to consider FI(nos/turo/super)
i assume you mean power/torque when you say performance since your post deals with emanage/unichip. but there are other performance areas you can improve relatively cheaply.... suspension, starting with sway bars

this is true ive spent more than enough money to turbo my car.. simple bolt ons are no good.
Go turbo or trade it in and get a car factory turbo.. maybe evo? or ummm those new lexus are quick..
HEY THE pontiac G8!
I think i would rather go with the evo
