Congratulations to SFR and Tim for the turbo kit to get featured on Speed TV!

I am running Tim's kit with Microtech ECU, it works great. Power and torque are very good in RX-8 term. I shall post a dyno chart once I received from my tuner.

The kit in general is pretty good, however if SFR could include a larger radiator in the package would be perfect for the hot climate countries, ie. Hong Kong.

Tim, how are you doing with my tail lights?? Can you send them out to me ASAP?

The SpeedForce car stopped by our shop this morning and I did a little tuning on the dyno.
Its a very nice car and turbo kit looks great. I will post a picture of it later.

I am glad you had a chance to do some fine tuning.The last guys that did the tuning on it,never worked on an RX-8 before so they seemed to have set the boost low and leaned it out a bit.Thanks for your help Jason Dan said the car is running great and real smooth but he hasnt opened it up since he left your shop because the cops are looking for them.LOL.
