Any other turbo rx-8's in Ontario/Quebec?

If so.. I am interested in knowing what trubo kit, other supporting mods and dyno numbers.

Also where did you get the car tuned?

Thanks!

What exactly are you looking to get done? If your looking for tuning, we now have a very good tuner working for us. Let me know, I'll see if I can help.

His name is Ivan, he has a good history with rotaries.

Street tuning is cheaper and can be done, but unsafe at 4th gear WOT runs....cops are dicks around K-W area

We have access to a dyno right at our shop also, roughly $220/hour for dyno tuning.

Sorry, forgot to respond here, but yeah I talked to Ivan and he said it shouldn't be a problem. What exactly do you need done? just some tweaking? or are you changing your setup?

Not changing the setup, he will be tuning from the base map that greddy provided, the car is 100% driveable now....i just want to tune with a AF, and a hi-lo boost settings, and hopefully slove some of my little driveabily kinks, for smoother power delivery.

Nice, thats a great wideband, we just street tuned a 2nd gen Turbo RX-7 the other day with a Haltech E8 and an AEM UEGO wideband and it worked mint!

Let us know if/when your ready to do some tuning and we can book in a time.
