Lambo doors for my 8..and performance chip

Thinking about putting lambo doors on my 8 was wondering if anyone else has had theirs done...if so did you have to alter the fenders so that they rose correctly because i read that some models need fender alterations and wondering if an rx8 is one of them.

Alsooo thinking bout getting a performance chip..dont really know much about them was wondering if anyone had suggestions or stories about them! In case you were wonderingg Im looking at Stage 3 Surge O2 Combo by Surge Engineering

No one has ever done Lambo doors on a RX8.

Forget the chips... buy a Turbonator

haha LMFAO you were gunna spend 300 on a chip that would have done nothing. How about you give me 300 dollars and I will install my "lays" chip under your driving seat and it will provide the same result. "Gain +15-40 additional HP, and extremely dynamic acceleration by up to 30 % in contrast to factory engine performance."

I promise

On a serious note how is it not illegal to advertise a part that claims it will make the rx8 go from 195hp to 223hp? http://www.performancechipsdirect.com/unlock-hp.html

People need to learn humor.



And yes, I do use the Swoope cup holder.

Edit: Check out Screm8 Send him a PM he has the best set up and I have seen 4 or more manufacturers.

Lambo doors are dumb. Here in Boston, they are played out. I see them on mustangs, civics, and even mercury's. That also goes for 22"'s and spinners. I don't want to make my car look like the rest. I bought the 8 to be different in a good way

lambo doors are a matter of opinion.

Dont get any chip but the cobb AP.

My stupid *** tried one of those ebay chips, all it did was make me laugh my *** off and mess with my idle lol.
