Pros tends to disappear once and awhile.
I always think he's an international spy or something. Some weeks he's constantly on the forum. And then he goes "missing". After a week or so, he's back in full force.
That bastard still has to give me my remaining parts! I've been trying to get ahold of him since I got back. But I haven't gotten a response!

I sent you a PM Neo, but ya I've been out cold with a terrible cold/fever for three days now, put my phone and emails on hold, health comes first. Getting slightly better. Not sure about the Pub meet, or the cruise at Forks yet.

I hate the cold, so I'll see.
I might have my Mspeed Intake up for sale soon, in the talks to get the Injen intake, numbers look promising, just a possibility, incentive of free shipping is nice.

21hp from it, come on now. I would wait if I were you. You know someone is gonna dyno this and prove it one way or the other. If it is that much then everyone will be buying it.

21hp my ***. My K&N filter got UPTO 100hp gain too...
As far as I know, the only way an intake can make more power is:
1- Being less restrictive then the stock intake which will alow more air to enter the engine.
2- Tricks the ECU by haveing a large MAF tube, causing the vehicle to run lean and mean.
3- Lower the AIT, cooler air, more dense = more power.
Why it wont work with the RX8
1- The stock box flows enough air.
2- The ecu learns and adds fuel, takes a few drive cycles.
3- The stock box pulls in outside air and does a good job of insulating, adding a air duct like the racing beat with the stock box works as good as anything else.
I dont know how they can get more air into the engine then the engine wants? If you cant get more air in, you wont make more power.
Maybe injen knows something nobody else knows and they realy made some 20HP but until someone buys the intake and has it dyno tested before and afterwards, no one is going to believe it.
Again, 9500 RPM???? Tunning????

Funny how Footman is the first to jump saying he never saw it.
If memory serves me correct, you saw it when we met up at La Paloma.
The only person who hasn't seen the FD this year is Thief.
Sorry buddy. I'm sure you'll be able to see it before the end of the season. Gotta make sure the skies are clear.

A thousand appologies Faded.
Completely forgot you haven't seen it either.
Well, if the weather holds you'll be able to see it.
I also hope I'll have all my Mazdaspeed parts installed on the car. Nothing left to do to it other than standard maintenance! Woohoo!

Footman,
LOL! I always say things like that. It gets peoples attention.
Faded,
The next time I drive the car into work, I'll let you know. You can always take a look at the parking lot and try not to blind yourself from the very bright red paint.
