If you explained a bit more about how it is tuned and what your setup is you might get some help.

okay, is a greddy bolt on turbo kit with bhr upgraded ignition, dual resonated race pipe from racing beat, runnin 4psi at the moment with a cobb access port, and a greddy oil pan, thats about it, also i heard like a weird noise coming from the engine like where the plugs are located before it happen so idk im so frustrated idk what to do i want to change the plugs but i want to make sure i put someting better since is not n/a anymore you know im ready to pull my hairs out

How long has the turbo been installed? Who did the job? Who is tuning it?

Who is tuning it, you or did you buy MM's tuning service with the AP?

Look through the major hp upgrades section and maybe the tuning forum, I'm sure stuff like this has been asked many times before.

Edit: Beat by rx8soldier >.>

alex at granite state dyno and tune in new hamphire tuned it for me, and it has been on for about a month

Could you give more detail? Like, were there any issues earlier on? Any CEL's? Are there any leaks? Have you tried contacting the place that installed the turbo?

Well i believe the turbo is not the problem i think are my plugs, from what im reading people with turbo are using NGK BUR9EQP (LEADING) NGK RE9BT (TRAILING) or just NGK BUR9EQP in all four,
the only cel i had was the second 02 sensor bcuz i have no cat

Other than "people are using these", what makes you think it's the plugs?

Have you checked for any leaks or dirty sensors?

i did check for leaks havent checked sensor i will be checking all that tonight, once i get out of work, but because of the noise it made it come from where the spark plugs are located could it be my upgraded coils gone bad idk i have no clue i dont even know where to start :'(

Can you describe the noise? Have you ensured the plugs/wires are secured? Have you disconnected the battery at all in the last couple days?

Not to bash, but do you have any prior knowledge to turbocharging?

no i do not my first turbo car ever trying to get hip, did you see the video?
ill try to get another video tonight or tomorrow morning....
it was a weird noise i cant really describe it but it sounded like something was breaking lol and after that noise i lost power the car slow down i step on the gas and it would go no where didnt wanna damage anything so i stop pushing it and let it shut off then it wouldnt wanna turn back on, ok think about it this way it was like it was flooded but to the point where it would turn on and never get unflooded im i making any sense?

Upload the video to youtube, whatever you are linking on facebook isn't working.

okay i finally got it uploaded to youtube here is the link,

this is what it does everytime i get to turn it on

Please answer the following:

1 ) Do you see the check engine flashes and at some point you get a P0300/P0301/P0302 ?

2) Is the RX-8 shaking a lot at idle ? Actually you can make it idle if you crank it in the morning when the car will be cold.

3) It revs very slowly and it feels like the throttle response is very slow?

4) do you have a boost controller so that you are able to see the vaccum at idle? If yes , what is your reading ?

1) yes
2) yes
3) Yes
4) i do not have a boost controller yet, I'm suppose to get one in two weeks when i get pay, and how can i read that with my cobb?
please tell me you have an answer a solution

Find a tuner that knows what he is doing, problem solved.

Bolt on greddy kit, no boost controller, no reputable tuner, first time turbo, engine possibly has 93k miles.....perfect recipe for a rotary disaster.

If everything is set up right then it just looks like your tuner is an idiot.

Either you have lost an ignition coil or your engine is blown. Just remove the ignition coil connector clips of the second rotor and try to crank the engine. If it will start then do again the same action but this time remove the first rotor ignition coil’s connector. If it will never start then the problem resides in the second rotor ignition coils or spark plugs or plugs wires. If ignition coils/spark plugs/plugs are ok (replace first the ignition coils) the engine is blown.

I mean the car starts but it does what you described and I have the factory coils and plugs that were working fine before i upgraded to the bhr ignition so i will change the whole system today and i will let you guys know if i blew my motor :( ...

+1. Sounds like it is all in the Tune.

the ignition time leading coil is reading -3 -2 and the trailing is reading crazy numbers goes from like 2 to all the way to 15.5 and back down and up

And what do you think that means?
