I saw that in Turbo Magazine a long time ago. Greddy cannot finalize the kit for U.S. consumption because of the slight variations between the Japan-spec and ours. From the looks of it, the turbo kit appears to use something larger than a TD-05. I'm not sure. I hope someone will use a T67, like Phoenix's Power's RX-8 (what does that neame mean anyways?). Also, I think there should be a new sub-forum for forced induction. It's getting hard to sort through the Tech & Perfomance forum without running into someone asking something about turbochargers and/or superchargers. In addition, this thread should be moved to the RX-8 News. Just my opinion .

Patience folks, it'll come. Either from Trust/Greddy, or other manufacturers. But there will be FI kits available for the '8... soon...

hello!!! I called Greddy last week and they told me that pic was the pic from the Japanese prototype and they said that they had didn't even have the US turbo prototype fabricated yet. They couldn't comment on any ETA or details on R&D.
