For all Auto Owners on the Rx-8. In your opinion what is your top 3 or 5 picks that you have done to get your Rx-8 with more power (hp) gains?

 

We really have the same options as manual 8's except the lack of a couple turbo kits. Also we obviously can't get a lightened flywheel, either. Other than that, it's pretty much the same deal. Search around for hi-flow cats, catless midpipes, catback exhausts, and intakes. Other than that, wait for Pettit's supercharger.

 

how many times can this question be worded in a different way?

thats the real question.

 

too many ways

 

I'm waiting on an new rear end gear that is supposed to make the car more lively, according to some guys in the far east forum.

 

nice. any more info on that?

i suppose new gears would make quite a difference

 

Actually yeah, keep us updated on the gears. I'd like info on that too.

 

You can do a search on 4.77 and get some info. JonDemand (lazi) has been selling them, and Paul at Mazmart has been offering to have the gear built and do a core swap. That's the route I went. Sounds like it is going to take awhile to get the gear in from Japan, but I think it will be worth the wait.

 

Thats also some big cash too, isn't it?

Well, i got it when JonDemand was having a sale. Got the gear for 675 shipped to Paul at Mazmart. Going to have him build the diff for me. With a core swap it is 300 to get it done. So by the time i get it and have a mechanic install it, it will probably be somewhere between 1000 and 1500, I would imagine. Not sure how long it takes a mechanic to swap out a diff.

 

I got mine from Japanparts directly.
Before installing it I have to work out on the PowerMode EMS. The car just did not go when all wired was secured and grounded. I also ran a catless midpipe and hand built catback.
