i think that i'll be able to get better higher hp numbers than the dyno run they recently had. my reasons are the original car had 2.50 inch exhaust piping and the turbokit. thats was about it. i will have the 304SS cat delition pipe, 3 in exhaust system, 10% larger turbo internals, and the water injection system. so....... im not promising, but i think we'll be able to see 345 or 350. but well just have to wait t=for the dyno numbers

Take it off for warranty work?? Sounds like B/S to me. But hope everything goes as planned for you on monday. Good Luck. Can't wait to hear the results.

Whats even more rediculous is the fact that this thread has been in existance since June 3rd so that must mean that his installation date must have been set before this date. Why would they accept more cars to work on knowing that they have to install a turbo kit for this guys RX8? Poor resource allocation? Hmmmmmm Ya Think?

No point in ripping the guy or SFR, that gets us nowhere.

Keep us posted and I'm sure it's already been said, but let's take a look at the dyno sheet when you're done.

Yeah D1GT-x8, keep us posted. I know I will be getting a turbo in the future (2 years). Really interested to see how much hp and torque you get out of the SFR/SSR. Good luck.vegas.

You sure are taking this well... If I had driven over 400 miles to Phoenix like SSR wanted me too, and they pulled this stunt, I would have been pretty pissed off.

Haha But I Dont Drive 400 Miles. I Only Drive 15 Mile Thats Why I Chose Them To Be More Convinient. And Plus They Waited For Me To Pay For The System. Its Only A Week. Plus They Really Hooked Me Up On The Install Too.
