Sure You Can ....But personally I would"nt .
And how much would that be to install the whole thing ??
Anyway, here is the reason why I need to buy an Automatic .. because of my sister doesn't know how to drive a manual car and we are sharing the car...
And I'm a totally new to modify car or this is my first sport car ever
please forgive if I sound noob or whatever **** I am.. hehe.. Willing to learn how can I modify my first sport car + nice

^^^^preferred option
But...in the absence of this....(and get your sister to pay more for the sacrific you're making!) wait for the new auto to arrive. Should be here early next year.

Kenny,
Getting an Auto is on the verge of taking the p!$$ (I'd pay for my sister to have lessons if I was in your situation),........ but this BOOOSTT thing is going too far for a classy car like the 8, the car turns most heads with it's looks and perks up enough ears with the sound of the rotary purring at revs only others dream of achieving.
I'm just imagining it,..... in heavy traffic going at low speeds on an incline and the car isn't sure what gear it wants and all you can hear is "BOOOOSTTT vroom BOOOSTTT vroom BOOOSTTT, etc. etc. "
Don't do it dude !

To: Bat1 - I'm just imagining it,..... in heavy traffic going at low speeds on an incline and the car isn't sure what gear it wants and all you can hear is "BOOOOSTTT vroom BOOOSTTT vroom BOOOSTTT, etc. etc.
Anyway, I have already bought the RX8 but they don't have it in Black for brand new and I have to wait for 15 days max
Just wondering that are they any nice carbon fibre boot wing for RX8?? Mind to show me any nice wing in picture??
Thanksss

Something tells me we're not going to be able to stop him. He's on a rice mission. 
Go searching through the Exterior Appearance and Bodykits section (think that's what it's called - see main index). If it's carbon you're after, I'm sure a yank somewhere has had a crack at it.

As I thought, an electronic device to make it sound like it is a turbo and has a blow-off-valve.
All that money and no taste. Sad really

Why bother? I'm sure there's a much bigger one you can get, for half the price

congrates on the new new buy...
the booosttttt thingy you want is the BOV (blow off valve) sound, which means it has to be FI (ie. force inducted, ie. either turbo or supercharged or both), there is a rice thingy which you can have for NA cars (ie. naturally aspriated, ie. non-FI), or simply burn the sound onto a CD, (ie. compact disk), and play it on your ICE system (ie. in-car-entertainment).
a huge-**** CF rear wing (ie. carbon fibre) will actually help you when reverse parking, do a search.....

probably because the belkin is not an integratable system, it is more of a fm transmitter and charger, what more do you need to know?
