Hindrix are you a troll/alt account

 

 

Not a clue, I just googled RX8 WANGAN and went to images

 

hindrix, welcome.

to correct the people you were talking to, "turbo'ing ANY car can lead to blowing it up"
As for the RX-8, it all comes down to how good your tuning is. If your tuning is spot on, you probably will not blow up your engine.

Oh, and as for 400-600 whp: NOT in an RX-8. Well, let me rephrase...
Not without spending at LEAST $10,000 , an engine rebuild, and LOTS and LOTS of tuning. Even then, probably unlikely you'll ever get to 600 whp.

 

need help i want to turbo charge my rx8 an everyone says dont do it unless u plan on blowing the mototr ?

 

...i smell troll

but just for kicks - have you even tried to look into the 'major horsepower' threads/forum??

because like...there's all this cool relavent info n' **** in there...

there's also pictures of random boobies some times...

 

well thanks jedi54 i would like atleast double wat it is now cause the car doesnt pull very well and i love this car so if u could help me out i would love that

 

Hindrix: you can get 600HP but you are going to need like $30,000 to do a 20b Swap


Everyone else.... I got this Alternator off another member for $25... talk about a steal. And I got the BHR Spacer from Gh8st when he was/is parting out for $65 shipped (also a steal). I hoping to do Methanol Injection when I do my install Ill post pics of the Intake when it gets here *tick tock tick tock*

 

hindrix: I assume you have a Manual Transmission?

If so, your car probably has somewhere in the neighborhood of 185 whp. (that's what your car actually produces, not what they measure at the flywheel and put in the pretty little brochure)

You want double?
370 whp is POSSIBLE but is not cheap.
Forget about generic turbo kits, they don't work.
forget about a stock greddy kit, it won't provide the HP that you seek.
You need to do research, there ARE kits out there that can help you with that but they are not cheap and with all turbo kits, they do come with the risk of losing an engine.

how much is your budget?

 

there is no budget i willing to spend a good amount if i can get the hp an yes the car is manual i would be happy with 350 to 400 to the rear wheel an have the motor be some what reliable this is me buliding a dream car an i hoping i didnt pick the wrong model lol

 

Man you bought a car with the intention of building your dream car but didn't research anymore than "I hear that turbos blow the engine"

 

wrong answer, try again.
There is always a budget. Telling me that you have no budget is not helping any of us believe you aren't a forum troll...

 

Hindrix: Looks like you are gonna have to contact BHR to build you a Monster BlackHaloRacing.com
