You cant see the turbo! its all the way down. IE: If you look at the front of the RX-8 head on, Its to the left all the way down there. You woul have to be under the car to see it.
I will try to get a good set up and video the car as it leaves the show so we can hear it.

EDIT: Oh yea, this kit runs about 4500 and produces about 260 HP
EDIT2: That's 260 on an AT.
EDIT3: $4667 without installation.

That would be because they are the same. I had posted stuff on the RE Amemiya car a looong time ago. At that time I had said that the RE Amemiya car is a joint project between RE Amemiya and Trust, however, the majority of the work was being handled by Trust.

Doh! If I had read further down the page I would have seen someone else had said basically the same thing...

The RE Amemiya AT 8 was dynoed at 250 w/ exhaust side port mods only at the flywheel and only 256 with the turbo running between 14-17.5 psi. That's not alot of difference barely noticiable at the wheels. I'll post the article later.

I just read the aticle in question...and it seems the editors either took the day off when this ws written...or they were all diping into grandma's moonshine. But i fyou over look the obviouse screw ups it's a pretty good piece. It appears taht the hp and tg numbers were switched. But all in all it's a sweet ride. Very streetable which is just what i'm looking for...just a lil more umpf to get my baby going

Greddy Turbo Kit

Okay guys there are pics courtesy of Mazdamaniac in my other SEMA thread. I was talking to the reps at the Greddy booth today about their car and it seems that they've come up with a working kit utilizing an E-manage, standard Greddy turbo kit components, and a 16G equivalent to a T3/T4.

Here's the kicker though, the guys said that IF they go into production, it'll be available in the first quarter of 2005. That's a big "IF." See, they said they're not sure if there's interest or profit to be made from the kit. They said they're still fine tuning it but they're making around 300 whp from it. We just gotta make sure we show them interest.

Here's what I propose. We should all take the time to e-mail greddy and tell them just how interested we are in their turbo kit for the renesis. The guy sounded very iffy, but I kid you not, we cannot miss out on this kit. WE MUST SHOW INTEREST.

MAYBE THE MODS SHOULD STICKY THIS???

You know now that you mention it, I think it may be crank horsepower. The sign said 302 hp, but you know how these sneaky manufacturers are.

Regardless we need to flood them with interest mail.

Anybody know if they can make them CARB certified, or is this out of the realm of possibility with an aftermarket turbo?

Don't forget the chart is in PS not HP, and it is at the flywheel.
