Welcome to a future member
Anything I can do to help out just holler. Just returning the brotherhood. If it have not been for the others when I first got this kit I would have never gotten out of the backyard.

thanks OD,,, After reading the threads I feel that My questions and concerns will be met with open critcism(even Jeff, has good points, aside form his 'my digital ***** is bigger than yours' days) My first question deals with the Mazsport Ignition- I currently own one(stil in the box) and was wondering if you had to custom fab a new mounting bracket or did you find a suitable location that allows the plug wires to reach comfortably???

Greg
there is a relocation of the coils with the pettit kit...including a bracket
you will prolly have to get new wires...dont think the ones in the mazport kit will be long enough...

check with those in the know!!

Just call Scott and he will make you a set of wires--i think you need 24 and 26 inches--not sure. Measure to be sure. . Get a set of the rx7 plugs and spacers also he has while you are at it.--run a little colder plug with this kit.

Scott is very good at helping out on plug wire length.
Also, make sure you have a way to adjust the dwell, either run the Interceptor-X or (I have been told) the Cobb Access port.
I think the Int-X may be the easiest to tune yourself.

I have the stock ECU flash.....

I do not have the Int-X.
From what I have read, it is easier to create your own settings for the Int-X.
My Stage 2 flash was done Feb 19, 2008.

Have any of you guys(Petit developers) heard or dealt with them

Ray is a good guy. The move From Manassas (and getting away from PF) was a good deal for the RX-7 and Lexus communities.
Can't do jack for your RX-8. Sorry.

I think its fairly obvious that you don't know what you are talking about, or you wouldn't have found yourself in this predicament.

Then you should have put them on before you spent good money after bad.

I think thats only because they havent tuned one yet... I know the older 13B are quit different than the new Rene's but I woud rather take my car to a place that at least has some experience with Rotaries rather than some random tuner, whom would sit and stare at my engine wondering what it is....

Also do you know of any reputable 8 tuners in my area???
