Thumbs up slavearm's mazsport turbo kit dyno

i installed the mazsport turbo kit on shane's rx8 over the last few days and scott was out here and tuned it.. at least as much as he had time for anyway. we're all hoping to get back to the dyno tomorrow for some more impressive numbers.

base run was at 6psi, untuned... forgot to print that sheet, but it was something like 286whp.

he got it to 304 whp tonight @ 8psi. a/f was nice, but the timing was SO conservative, i don't think you'd ever have to worry about this thing blowing up...serious man, this was a CONSERVATIVE tune! i saw it for myself.

we're all exhausted, and i've got to get back to work. so here's a teaser sheet, and hopefully we'll have something more betterer tomorrow
how often do you see a turbo car keep making power past 8k? that's the ****!

Nah, I bet when he wasn't looking you were trying to take out the engine and port it right ?

What the hell happened to the AFR on the second graph?! It looks like the program had a seizure.

wow - that's what I like to see. 300+ whp seems to be the magic number that will make everyone happy - anything else is icing on the cake. So now my question (im guessing this wont be answered till SS9) but how much did all this run you? A breakdown of total cost for the kit, the install, and cost of dyno time and cost of Scotts time would be awesome :-D


I'm no expert on turbos, so unfourtunatly I'll have to do pay someone to do ALL the work - but it's nice to know that the target can be achieved (300+ rwhp) and know that the engine is never going to blow up.


Fantastic work! - cant wait to see more.

Far as I'm aware, it's a complete replacement. There is an option to keep the greddy intercooler (in case you don't want to remove your front bumper) and replace the rest...

I too would be interested in an actual upgrade for the greddy kit, but I haven't seen the Mazsport's turbo kit yet, so I don't know how much is interchangable.

It is pretty quick, but I am still in grandma driving mode until Scott is done tuning.

As far as the power goes, what is scarey, is that at 6lbs with no more than 10 degrees of timing and a very very conservative fuel map, the car was making 299. Hopefully we can get more dyno time in tomorrow and see how it goes. Plenty of power left in that turbo though.

Oh... and Special thanks to:
guitarjunkie - Sleepless Wonder Mechanic, now get back to work on my car!
Scott - You are the man... sorry it got so late
The Mazsport Traveling Circus - Heheheheh my face almost cracked from the ear to ear grin didn't it?
Nick and Louie from Rotary Reliability and Racing - Thanks for the Dyno time, and access to your parts bin.

wow, when i saw the car perform yesterday it was nothing but impressive... there is so much more potential power even at 6 psi.... all i have to say our performance needs have been answered....


mysql.... from my understanding they do have a greddy upgrade which involves remaning the turbo... but you will have to contact mazsport mantis, and scott.....

shane, congrats on the man hopefully you wont bow that spoiler

How long did you tune last night? Exhaust? Cat? I predict torque will get higher.

Triple yum - just speculating - (and being greedy) if thats a very conservative tune, what are the chances of 330-340 horses to the wheels?

in my opinion it shouldn't be a problem at all...

Once the kit is in production, will it still require tuning after installation?

hmmm i thought the kit was already in the early stages of production - i.e. it going on sale at (or right after) sevenstock?

My guess is it will be like the interceptor-x, you can run it out of the box but a little fine tuning never hurt plus it might yield a little more power.
