I'm not going to explain it all again.
Every possible question you could possibly conceive has been answered already.
That's the problem, I tried already. It's hard to find the right info when I don't know exactly what I am looking for.

Were talking a neddle in a hay-stack in this 14page thread.

Turbo - the real problem is that you are trying to find answers to questions about the IntX in a Greddy thread. Search for "Interceptor" and threads started by "MazdaManiac" .

It took me about 5 seconds to find this...

Thanks tiddy!

After reading that thread I am pretty worried. I don't have anyone near me to accomplish those complex tuning issues. I would not feel comfortable doing any of that myself!

The fact that weather effects the tunes really worries me. I drive my car all year round and outside temps vary from (-22 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit)

How does Int-X do logs???????

I know it is off topic - but if I can get that info I can maybe help you out in a few months... my automated tuning software should be ready by the end of Spring.

We have the same temperature variation issues here. Everything is a choice. I chose the Ultimate for my turbo kit because it handles the environment issues a little better but knowing that I could probably make more HP with the Interceptor. I would rather have an OEM like driving experience than a dyno chart that says I made x HP.

I agree.

I am starting to regret not doing more research before I decided to purchase the int-x.

I always had the impression that the Mazsport int-x was the best choice.

The Int-X works fine.
It just has a few quirks that some (like me) will find unacceptable.

It depends on what you are looking to accomplish.

My goals are to run as much boost as I safely can on the stock fuel pump and injectors with a SAFE tune.

I live in Ottawa, Ontario Canada

Don't second guess yourself about buying the Interceptor. It is a great product. You will easily be able to run the Greddy Map that Scott@Mazsport can provide you.

All engine management systems have their own issues and the interceptor is the most widely used EMS for the RX8. Learn as much as you can about tuning it. I'm sure you can ask Jeff (MazdaManiac), Vlad (rotorocks), or Scott questions. Just make sure you have done your research first. They don't enjoy answering the same questions over and over again.

But you "wrote" this whole page on your website that details how to the fix all the issues with the GReddy kit, so why are you confused? : http://www.turborx8.ca/?page_id=9

Like I said to MazdaManiac in PM's.

I had no idea that by copying/pasting something from a forum was considered "stealing". All I was trying to do was take valuable info about the GReddy turbo kit and list it on my site. It's not like I am making profit from someone elses work.

I deleted the page and it wont happen again.

All you have to do is put a credit somewhere.
It's just like quoting a book.

It is stealing because you simply copy & pasted it onto your website without giving him credit for it. It MIGHT have been okay if you first asked to use it and THEN posted it on your site with the proper credit given, but you did neither. It's still stealing even if you aren't making any money off it. They (Jason [mysql101] and Jeff [MazdaManiac] took the time to come up with original and helpful material, so should you.
