I saw an article in Modified magazine today on the RE Amemiya RX8 w/Trust turbo kit it put out 256 whp & 325 lb.-ft. torque. Either that was a typo (it should be 225 lb.-ft., not 325 lb.-ft.) throughout the article or holy Jesus that is a huge jump in torque !!! Isn't Trust in Japan = Greddy in America ? They had an upgraded tranny system.

This kit looks nice. I'm not a huge fan of GReddy, but they do make quality parts however. I'm interested to hear more when more people start using it.

Let me clear something up, in case there was some confusion...
The kit for the US-Spec kit has not been tuned nor dyno'd and won't be for sometime. I am currently serving in Korea and left the car in the expert hands of GReddy for SEMA preparation. Expect HP/torque numbers in the December timeframe.
The two undercar photos include the replacement oilpan that will be supplied with the kit (no drilling into the stock pan necessary).

That is one sweet looking kit. I hope the numbers are good because this kit looks like the one I will be getting. I was looking into the SFR kit but I think they are having a stupid outer body experience with thier pricing. All I can hope is that Greddy doesn't do the same, which I'm pretty sure they won't, because Greddy actually wants to sell some kits.

One interesting question. It is supposed to be all bolt in, but how exactly do you bolt the turbo and manifold in? Looks like a tight fit down low. Almost like you would have to pull the motor but I doubt Greddy would make anyone do that. I need to go look at my car at the clearance.
