I have a 2006 RX8. I want to increase performance, but dont want to void my warranty. SO I am screwed but at lease I can get a cold air intake. my question is what is best the AEM Cold air or the K & N short ram intake? is there a big differance.


A guy at the Mazda dealership told me that they could add a 2nd rotor to the rotary engine in the RX8. Anyone ever heard of this before?

 

All the rotary engine vehicles sold in America have (and have only had) two rotors.

I would avoid that dealer for service because if they don't know that it is a two rotor engine, they shouldn't be allowed near your car.

 

wow I tend to agree with you on that. lol

 

Mazdaspeed products should'nt void your warranty, but check with them first.

 

Go with the Racing Beat intake and Ram tube.

 

That is probably the worst thing I ever heard... Ask them if you can add a second ******* to their ***.

I have the Racing Beat Revi intake with the Ram air duct.. .a bit more money then the other too, but it looks stock and the sound is great..

Performance wise you won't gain very much by adding just one thing... The Revi gains 2-5.8ho max which is on their website.

There are alot of things you can do... All depends on what EXACTLY you want and expect.

 

ever thought about a aftermarket catback? mazda speed one will be in warranty

 

I was looking at the REVi, I may go with it. I was hoping I could get something other than that, around $1000. that would increase performance.

 

the racing beat search engine is good..
