Robert,

I was thinking that you can buy a new RX8 swap a 20B and sell it to any one of the rx8club members............. the problem is that the RX8 here is $10K more expensive than in the US.

Is a bad joke..........................

It's Ball bearing.
Up graded from .96 T4 Tangential turbine housing to 100

(si quieres verla, yo soy de orocovis, nos ponemos deacuerdo y nos encontramos, preferiblemente en la tarde)

Thanks
Braco
