SEMA GReddy Turbo RX-8
 

What I do know:

1. The GReddy turbo kit is installed on my 6M/T, the kit is to be released early next year (don't hold me to it).
2. A/T turbo kit is still being test-fitted in Japan, no ETA yet.
3. Engine cover and air filter cover were custom-fabbed w/lexan by GReddy.
4. Strut tower bars are to be released Dec/Jan.
5. Car will be tuned/dyno'd after it's appearance at SEMA, Nov. 2-5 and is expected to have an output ~303 hp (flywheel) at 7psi.

nice pics

wish I could go to sema

awesome, keep us updated!

Wow - I think I gonna cry once again... One day my 8 will look like that when I pop the hood - just have to wait my turn ;)

Fucking Sweet !

wonder if its legal to modify or fit 1 turbo into my rotary..

Is the turbo kit coming out in Dec/Jan or the turbo 8 coming out in Dec/Jan :confused:

how much will the front and rear strut tower braces cost?

o0o0o nice install but i'll wait for some specs before i praise Greddy some more, also please tell me they used something other then their emanage.

Also very nice that they hooked up that rear chasis brace to the shocks/springs under the trunk carpet.

hrm titanium grey, left hand drive, blue sueded seats..well i be darned that's your car isn't it shawrf1... c'mon spill it. :p

pretty clean..but i would give it some time..

OMG im in heaven. More details please. Pretty please.

Hey, that rear strut bar might fit in my car (with my spare tire mounting kit) !

They did a hell of a job hiding the turbo down there eh? Look how short the oil feed and return line are. Very cool and in the spirit of keeping the weight down low as Mazda intended. I think it is a TD06-18G. Nicely sized for a low boost street setup like they are looking to acheive. They use the e-manange on everything and it was listed previously unless something changed. From what I remember the boost was set to 0.4kg. This is all old information based on the Trust setup.

Nice to see this year ending with a raft of various forced induction options. Next year looks to be a good one. It would be even better if any of them become CARB legal. :)

I keep looking at it and keep thinking to myself how easy that would be to pass off as stock.

I like the rear strut brace as well. Keeps the trunk usable.

can't wait to see numbers

wow! that is awesome. that install looks like it's gonna be pricey on top of the kit itself. I also hope it doesnt use the emanage unless they have a new version of it.

"I have seen the future, and it looks GOOD!!!!"

Holy Crap!! this is a done deal, I have yet to see some stuff come out of Greddy that hasnt rocked!! I'm so excited now!! WOHOO {Tax return now diverted to the Da Freehks Car}

Nice install hopefully the numbers will suffice, dreaming of {300KW and 350nm }and i would be a happy punter . :D

cheers

Okay...I'm curious...that voids the warranty, yes?

Hell yea it do. But I will get all the Video I can at that show. See you there Turboed out 8...

Ok I might have to get a RX-8 now after seeing this turbo setup. Hope it gives this poor 1.3 some major TQ!! atleast 250.

Any specs?
Can't wait.........

awesome.... cant wait to see its done.
would be good to see some good number and see if it is reliable :p
the more kits on the market, the better for us ;)
