Smile More Power For My RX-8??

Would anyone know ways of getting more power out of your RX-8. I have an 2007 AT and so far i've heard that i could possibly put a turbocharger in or a new intake system. Also, where would be the best place to go to get this done. Any suggestions and info on this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

You're in the wrong area.

Please use the search function or use google and cross reference what you're looking for.

But...I'll be nice...

Forced induction is pretty much your only option for major power gains. intakes really aren't worth it. you can read all about why in the tech garage.

As for finding someone to do the work, check the regional section and search for a local rotary specialist shop.
