Yes it's worth purchasing from MazdaManiac. Get it before it gone.
Did you read this thread?
https://www.rx8club.com/mazdamaniac-183/new-mazdamaniac-base-calibrations-162263/
Teh AP so far to date is the best way to tune. Far superior to any piggy back system.

Yes get it while the gettin is good.
As for what Maniac does, I dont know exactly but basically he makes the program that the access port uses to changes the ECU programing.

Anyone who doesn't bother to search for this will never read the instruction thread, let alone the instruction instructions thread.
This should be interesting

so MazdaManiac is just a tuner that makes maps for the PORT? are they going to continue making them? so you just pay the 100.00 extra and then you can use the maps that they make? cuz i was looking around and there is a bunch of different NEW and NEWEST soft wear??

Power!!
Back up slowly and just walk away. Please for the love of god read his Accessport thread. There is tons of good information there from him that answers your questions. Everyone else is just repeating what he says and you will mis-interpret it because you don't yet know what tuning the PCM is all about. Learn that first then start asking questions.

Hardware is to accessport
Software is to programing.
The reason you're paying $100 extra is to have a tune done by someone who has dyno proven results with an overwhelming majority of RX8 accessport users happy with the tune WHILE increasing the reliability of the engine by injecting more oil and kicking on the fans earlier.
how do I know this? Buddy of mine has the MM tune on his RX8 and it makes a big difference in everything.
I saved you searching and probably some humiliation from a lot of people on here who forgot that this forum is a place to ask for help.
Good luck with your modding.
