Ya, the coils wont really affect you power much, but they will just make the car run smoother and what not. And you wont have to replace them every 30,000 miles. And the coils and plugs on an 8 are not cheap.

Power wise I felt the biggest gain from my flywheel. If you are going to do a flywheel I would do the clutch to. It's about a $500 install job. The reliability from the bhr ignition is awesome. I love mine. Response was easily doubled. The ignition I think is probably a wiser and simpler start. Do the flywheel when you need a clutch. Go BHR all the way. You won't be disappointed.

I want a different midpipe but I'll probably just gut my cat for now. I really want to find a cheap Cobb ( no need to rub it in) I wish there was a different alternative to a cobb

Keep checking out the forums, good chance you can find one for 500ish maybe even less if you get a good deal.

Yes, I have a Spec stage 3. It is really to much clutch. I just got a really good deal on it. I also have the lightweight pressure plate. I wouldn't get more than a 2+. Mine is real moody in traffic.

Hit Aand Run!!

Well i started working the dent out of my door this weekend. Having to be very careful with it be cause the metal is so thin. Having to do a lot of shrinking. I am also going to do a slight custom paint job on it also. I want it to look different from the other silver rx8's ion town. Doing some photo shopping on it right now. I will post some renderings later.

They cost about 215ish before shipping and all that jazz, so I'm looking to get something close to that seeing as it has never been used.
