quit spending your money on the look good stuf mike save up for the go faster stuff REALLY I JUST THOUGHT "man id really like to do this that and the other thing! but how do i get around the whole warrenty thing?" then i thought " it'd be nice to have a spare around in case i blow up the first" then i thought "hey if im going to get a 'spare' I might as well do the work on it and keep the original as is"

that way my car also stays running while i fuss with the porting etc.

Remember that emissions and smooth running were concerns addressed in the design of the intake and exhaust port configurations. Not just the lack of overlap, but the overall timing as well. I wouldn't doubt that Mazda also figured there would be several of us who would begin the mods and show the power levels Renesis is truly capable of producing.

Hey Zoom, do you think we would get a better deal on the engines if we ordered them together? I'm guessing your thinking about a used engine from Japan. Let me know because I may be in the market sometime before next summer.

I wouldn't think it would make much difference in price to order more than one, if that’s even possible. If your looking for a used REW, keep your eyes on EBay, I have not checked yet but I’m sure engine importers will start bringing them in as soon as they become available from over seas. Japanese people go through cars a lot faster than Americans, a two year old 8 with 40k is considered old and worn out. It shouldn't be long before some of those motors become available.
