I've been with this forum for nearly 2 months and have never seen so many questions about how to get the rx8 to 300whp without them reading first. I remember when I was trying to install a Greddy turbo on my 350 and even then I didn't just come out on the 350z forum and say how can I get ###WHP

on one of my youtube videos, there is a guy who keeps telling me his NA rx8 makes 270 hp, and that I'm an idiot to pay for a turbo. He thinks larger injectors and porting will let him go to 300 whp. Thus his logic is that turbo = 30 hp gain over stock, and 0 hp gain over his modified NA motor.

I asked him to post on the rx8 and rx7 forums that he can get 300 out of a NA 2 rotor. Maybe gevo24 was the youtube jackass.

it seems that a LOT of people think the rx-8 comes with 230-260 whp for some reason. I think most people don't know hp != whp.

also, this might be unrelated, but the people on youtube think i'm a girl (someone thought they saw painted nails), and they also seem to think I have the automatic with the 4 port - which is why my gains don't stack up to what they believe are the numbers on a stock rx8.

here we go, user comments from just one of my videos:

i dont really know what rx-8 u have but there is no rx-8 with 180 hp! i have the rx-8 6 speed manuel and it has (stock) 237 hp!
the 5 manuel is 212 hp!
so 180 hp has to be the 4 speed automatic 2004-2006 rx-8..
its not my fault you live in shity norway but if you want a rediculous youtube suggestion heres one go cut yourself and cry because you can't get yourself a nice car
Rotary engines don't have much torque, meaning that you'll get more turbo lag.
they come 240hp stock. auto its 200hp flat.
have heard that adding a supercharger is more beneficial for a low torque engine like the RX9. Is this true?
the stock rx8 i had made 225whp
The Rx8 wot is obviously automatic . My manual 6 speed is naturally aspirated and pushes 270hp+ and isn't that far off in response to the 8psi demo run... (and is about 3-5 grand cheaper on my pocket book)

just put your numbers in there perspective, which is 0% drivetrain loss

that puts you at 360hp

it looks like only one guy used WHP

can't argue logic with them. Check out this discussion about the hydrogen powered rx8:

madjimms> why is hydrogen 1/3 more powerful than gasoline............. where did you get the numbers?
tdyduch13> believe me it puzzled me too... cuz from my basic understanding of chemistry hydrogen burns richer than gasoline?? right or no?? am i wrong??? but believe me i dont talk out of my *** and i do have the source.... i will send it via inbox cuz for some reason i cant post a comment with a link in it...idk why not

..and

I'm curious as to why you have 2 psi gauges installed

I have a feeling that maybe one of those people have an RX8 but know nothing about it accept for its looks and the others have never even driven an RX8.

Sometimes, you wonder if people think with only half of a brain....

ok, just one more set of youtube comments. these are off an early video I made.

what does turbo charged mean??

I dont get why there's a boost gauge... its not like it tells you anything useful on the road, unlike a tach- or speedometer..

when u drive a normal stock car and then a turbo such as this can u really feel a boost in power?

this video the turbo's kicking at 5500rpm not giving it enough time to force more air into the engine probably you should change Ecu if you are still running stock for better response

They're actually coming out with a Speed RX-8. There is also a MazdaSpeed3 Extreme... check that out too.

Look up the specs, it's fact. Only the 7 twin turbo is faster, but drop a twin turbo in the 8... who knows? Educate yourself before you talk ****.

i think you need more agressive cams and some new heads....it would give it that more thumpity sound of a classic V6 rotary

Standard RX8 is equipped with 338hp 1.3 engine... 1.3 !! In 1990's Golfs 2 had 55hp 1.3 engines... and now, out of 1.3 we can get better results than most of GTI's (VW Golf, 200hp) !! And it got 2.0l engine

make the boost gauge go to 30psi!plez!

Oh yay a boosted RX8. What are you putting down at the wheels now? 230rwhp? lol

do you have a blowoff valve!? or is the turbo just that sick?
