Since there is a few here got turbo and works well, I had a dream last night that I was driving a twin turbo 8. Anyone want to make my dream come true hehe.:lol:

laulongfei 09-05-2008 12:21 AM

I heard rumor that Greddy are no longer produce any rx8 turbo, is that true? I check the internet recently especially ebay, there only a few left. If they dont make turbo anymore, what other option do we have?:Eyecrazy:

VS8 09-16-2008 09:14 AM

I have questions about the GReddy turbo...do I need the emange with the cobb AP or can I use the Cobb by itself are there any other parts i should upgrade to withstand the power of the turbo

Check out Mazsport's 300 series turbo. Scott will help you get the right setup for your car.

You don't need both. Your choices basically are Emanage, IntX, or Cobb.

As far as upgrades, depends on what you plan on doing with the car, and how much boost you plan on running. If you are not planning on tracking the car and sticking with the stock boost levels of the greddy turbo kit, I'm guessing you would be fine as is. If you plan on going for higher boost levels, at the very least you'd need fuel system upgrades. If you plan on tracking the car, you should look at upgrading the cooling systems.

VS8 09-16-2008 12:49 PM

yea...i autocross

nuke0907 09-16-2008 04:29 PM

also the ignition system at higher boost levels. :)

mdw1000 09-17-2008 12:25 AM

If you autocross, my best guess for upgrades (assuming the standard greddy 6 psi) would be make sure you do something to get the fans on sooner (like Cobb AP or Mazsport cooling fan mod). I would also recommend a second oil cooler. You can pick up a used cooler and lines from a parts car, or you can hit up Mazmart for a new one. I'd also recommend switching to a more water-heavy coolant mix. The Mazmart water pump is also a great idea.

If you get all that and still end up having cooling issues, you can also look at Ray's radiator.

nuke0907 10-07-2008 06:00 PM

<-----found a used greddy kit :)

09Factor 10-07-2008 09:28 PM

How many miles ?

nuke0907 10-08-2008 12:54 AM

no idea. i'm gonna get the satan's hairdryer too.

G-Gray dude 10-11-2008 09:25 PM

welcome on board, bro

nuke0907 10-12-2008 04:07 PM

i've been waiting patiently to pay the seller so he can ship me the turbo kit but he still hasn't given me any payment info. :banghead:
