RX8 V6 engine conversion
#176
Hi read your thread with interest I have been collecting bits to replace the engine in one of my RX8 did you get yours finished ?.
I have gone for the Jag 3.0 engine 240bhp standard, did you know that this engine can produce 450bhp n/a seem that is used in a race car. Jag took this Mazda engine to Cosworth and asked then to make it produce more power. my ECU chap says 300bhp all-day long with all the emissions crap removed Ive had an S type as a road car for 2 years and its fairly quick for a car weighing 1650kgs. So I would like to know more about your conversation and how its getting on ?.
