That's why i always say rotary and turbo are perfect match....... When the engine is running at high speed, air suction is not sufficient..... That my 2 cents....

my personally opinion is if it suck air out and not recycle it is perfect. dunno why they need to recycle back the air.

1. Use Mineral Oil instead of Synthetic as it affects the engine in the long run. This was the latest directive from Mazda Japan.

2. The reason why Malaysia does not have new RX-8 is because Mazda Japan does not want to sell any units in Malaysia. Too many engine problems. The reason is ONLY 1: Our petrol quality sucks. That is why in SG they sell but not here. How wonderful.

3. They recommended me to try Mobil for petrol and never ever pump in Petronas... I thought Malaysia Boleh...

4. And NEVER EVER try pumping in V-Power....

Any comments???
1) Mineral oil or Rotary oil will be wonderful...... But i will be sweating all the time if i use mineral oil.......

2) RX8 was here b4 C&C really started to promote Mazda, after loosing rights to sell Merc...... Then they knew that selling a brand new RX8 cost RM260k above plus 2 years warranty is not feasible. If they raise it further, nobody would buy it.... Then if you plan to sell certain model, Japan will make sure you got at least 80% of the parts in your inventory, which means you need to borrow more money..... Throught out the history of performance car, we would never want to get OEM parts...... That's why they dont sell the car here....... Talking about fuel, Fuel in America are supply from Arab nation, which contain more sulfur than Malaysia's oil, so why did he complain of our fuel quality??

3) I'm usin Petronas, infact all my 8 family cars uses Petronas, works perfectly.....

4) I switch from V-power to petronas this year after all my car feel sluggish with Shell....

I have switched back to V-Power today...... Decided to change to Petronas last week (feels sluggish)..... Car feels better with V-Power..... Much more powerfull...... Since V-Power is rated at 99Ron, then it is closer to Japan Spec fuel witch is 100Ron........ Therefore, V-Power should be better...... Anywayz, I've been using V-Power ever since SHELL launched it (on my EVO5).......
Sooo, those MAZDA dudes u talking to not very bright larrr...... Anywayz, Lennon is right..... Fuel in US is worse then in Malaysia...... They even still sell 92Ron Fuel there.......

What do you mean Max boost of the turbo?? Turbo boost as high as 2 bar, but the question is how much can your engine take........ Then we have have to know the engine compression, 10:1 comp. is only good for low boost, 8:1 comp. can go for 2 bar....... To get more HP and boost, apex seal must change to stronger one, aftermarket ECU is needed...... Then radiator, fuel pump, oil cooler will require upsize, it's a chain reaction.....

Experience is important, it's not every mech. capable of doing it right.....

Have to do it in cold room??? WTH is that..... Bro, you listen too much..... Mech. are not working in Food industry, their boss wont even bother to get aircon, except for the showroom.....

Electronic charge. on when needed, off when normal drive.

actually its just a Inline Bilge Blower that can be switch on and off.

but do you know how much is the max psi our car can take without extra addons?

just inline blower infront the intake and may be the exhaust.
