I'm the owner of a Mazda Rx-8 07 I've had it for almost a year now and having some issues with my car right now. My car has lost a lot of power and it won't speed up fast I just change the coils , spark plugs and wires few weeks ago and still the same.. idk what to do now . I'm form MD and if anyone can help me that would be great..
