RE-Amemiya A/T Turbo-256whp
Anybody have any ideas when/if this kit will be available/what kind of performance do yall think it is capable of?
|
I would be checking in to this RE Amemiya Turbo Kit more often if I had the chance to actually get one when it comes out.
But I believe that there #'s are real except the torque. Its just to wierd how they made 325 lb ft out of any rx8. |
Yeah I'm almost certain that that 325lb/ft of torque is a typo. 260HP and 225lb/ft is more believable.
|
I was kind of betting on a typo as well, but those numbers have been published more than once, so I'm not sure. It could be, they are pulling boost all the way to redline, or maybe using a small turbo that runs out of steam. Assuming the power peak is at 7200rpm, it'd be making about 187 lb-ft. That's one strange looking torque curve. I don't forsee a 15+ psi kit going to market however.
|
I may be mistaken, but I think it is for sale in Japan already. I think that the Greddy Kit mated with a stall converter (with a stall about 1,000 rpm higher) would create an A/T with a sub 6second 0-60 time.
|
it is for sale has been for a while. (in japan)
|
If only it was cheap as the greddy.

I imagine less boost, too (since the auto's injectors are only good out to about 260 crank HP). |
Then why is this way too expensive than the greddy turbo for mt?

i thought it was about 480,000 yen? or £2500 wich to me is quite good value for a turbo! sadly once it reaches the white cliffs i think that price will double!
|
^^Ya guys, it's only $4,900, I'm waiting to hit a small 5k-10k lottery or something and it will be mine!
|
hang on a min I am not sure if $5000 is that much in the US for a bit of kit like that but here in the UK that kinda money buy a mid range plasma TV! or a top notch PC so i really dont see a turbo costing that much as a stupid sum!
i can well see it over here once fitted costing at least double that! i am willing to wait and see if it arrives on our shore and if it does i will be as happy as larry if not i might have to take a lil trip to Japan in a few years once my warrenty is no more! |
2500 pounds is equal to $5000

So would this mod be better than the Greddy turbo for the auto rx8?
|
What are some estimated times with this turbo kit? The 1 Greddy auto was getting 0-60 in like 6.1-6.4 seconds or so.
|
I thought it is 246 hp at the crank not at the wheels.
Anyway, |
I think the website says Wheels.
|
That is what I am saying...
They said 250ps in all the Jap mag :p Who cares. They are building a 400ps Renesis :eek: |
Building a 400bhp Renesis wheres that!!!!!!!!
i thought this kit used the Greddy as a Base? |
I want my 400hp Renesis! Where did u hear this info from do you have a source?
|
i remember some one saying that the kit couldnt be put on due to something being on the other side compared the the jdm model rx8. is this true?
|
I had a japanese magazine in my hands a few weeks back and it stated that this turbo's pressure is at 17psi. I was amazed, cuz its more than double of the greddy kit...
the compression of our engine is 10:1... isn't it too high? any comments? |
