Suggestions..?

hello all,

just found this site, seems cool, just wanted a few comments and/or suggestions from other rx-8 owners.

1. im looking to get a turbocharger, ive researched it a little and all i could really find was Greddy, HKS, and mazadaspeed. main thing is i want the full kit including intercooler waste gate etc... problem is though i dont really want to drop 5k.

2. ECU? i also done a little searching but found them for like 1.5k

3. japanesse made? how would i go on ordering stuff from overseas? websites?

i was also thinking of going totally nuts an try to find a 20b engine... for those of you that have no idea what a 20b is, its a 3 rotor engine. would it be cheaper to go for a 20b and project my way through? or just go with what i have.

thanks in advance

there is no mazdaspeed turbo

5k is about what it cost for the greddy kit with the stuff needed. i think..

and we all know what a 20b is
