Original Turbo 'd Auto !!
The 07 + Rx-8 is an easier canidate for FI. just because it's a 6 port motor there are many more availble maps
Hey CbRotary. Attached are the requested pics of the vac source for the boost gague and BOV. The other pic is of the vac source for the Wastegate coming off of the turbo's charge pipe.

If it's on which it sound like it is, turn it off. Go for a drive and you should see around 5psi.

Do anyone of you know what's the difference between RE-Amemiya trust turbo kit and Greddy's? I know they are the same except the computer set up. And according to them it can push 240 or 270 ps and when Rick's rotary install the greddy turbo on his car it blew the trans. Is that mean that Somehow the RE-turbo are more reliable and difference than greddy turbo that have to be adjust?

just to let you guys know. apex8 aka rick from (rick's rotary performance in pleasanton, ca) wouldn't do a turbo installation anymore on rx-8. the last time i talked to him regarding a turbo for mu automatic , he said he wouldn't do it and he doesn't want to get involved if anything happens to the engine.
