I am not sure of the actaul HP increase. I have another mod or two to go before I want to dyno. I'll tell you this though: I just got back from a day at the track and there were about 10 RX8's there. I was the only one running the CZ and I had the fastest 8 there by far! It was my first time on a track so I know it wasn't my driving skills that were putting the other 8's in my rear view!

GET IT!!

uh...correction. There was in fact, two (that I know of), CZ-equipped cars out there. :D But no matter! I installed my CZ about two weeks ago, and I noticed a difference instantly!
Just buy it! :D

Sorry Doc! Haha! :D I thought that Omicron was the only other 8 there with a CZ - but his wasn't installed! I wish we both were on the course at once to compare. I don't think we were!

I'll go to the dyno soon to see what I am putting down. I reset my PCM every tank of gas with my $5 reset mod. The PCM learns your mods and maps eventually, so as long as we only have a piggyback, you have to reset, reset, reset. It takes me 30 seconds to rest now. My car is pulling really strong right now, but I have 27K on the plugs. I'll do new plugs B4 the dyno session.

Besides the NVRAM and KAM resets that can be done from within the car, I also have a quick release negative battery terminal. Everytime I fill the tank I reset the entire car

See the green **** in the photo? That's it.
