Lemme tell you this: The kit works, the a/f piggyback is working, and the car has enough power to break the tires completely loose (as in, burn 'em off!) in third gear. Boost comes on strong at around 4500 RPM. All that's left to do is finish up a bit of replumbing.
So, it's real close. All I can say for now.

2nd to 3rd can almost break the tires loose... In 1st to 2nd i can break and get a little bit sideways in the process.

My bad. :o
Yeah when I first got the car, I was chirping the tires like crazy (I didn't have the slightest clue how to drive a stick properly).
If the Sunflower RX-8 could break the rear tires the way Omicron described, it must be one serious monster. Time for a new LSD. :D

It looks like Blitz has both the 6PI and the 4PI engine covered in the JDM. So you auto owners just might be covered... hold on for the Blitz kit.

mmkay. Which, for those that are in KC, RX-8 are we talking about? Sunflower has two. One silver the other black, both with MS kits on. I saw the black one at MC Racing and snagged some pics of it but they suck (I need a new camera). Wasn't able to get too much information out of them or for them to pop the hood.

OK.. Thought it was time for a little bump.. Does anyone have any updates? I heard SSR is about done with theirs.. Same with Pettit but they will go through a pilot testing phase with those lucky people in Florida....
What about this though... ?
