ITO do us a favor for the people that want to hear stories and you still trying to pull power out keep us updated.as for dealer comments, if its one thing i know they use you as a poster child.they are more than aware that you post here and other forums.i totally understand you keeping it a secret.and i know what you are capable of.

also will you be making any more dyno,track apperances.im intrested in either video the runs for you if you like.

wow, 14 pages of bashing one of the rotary community's legit contributors, geesh, I'm almost ashamed to drive an 8 after reading through all this drivel. what's next? holy crap are there a bunch of impatient crybabies on here, you all should be glad you even have a car, much less one as fabulous as our 8. Take a look at the 350z for example, it was over a year before any FI was introduced or anything like that. This wondrous car has loads of potential, it's only a matter of time before we start seeing what it can really do, just be patient and let "da' judge" do his thing, along with all the other companies. I've been a rotary fan for years and have followed Ito's posts for a while now, he's one of the few member's on this board (and other boards) whose posts are legit, arguing over the definition of stock and this and that is just ignorant, no wonder all the more knowledgeable folks stay the heck away from here, what a sad thread.

I don't have the automotive expertise to truly appreciate a lot of technical things that many of you discuss and debate, so I read an learn. Having said that, I can appreciate and respect someone advancing and improving upon what is there. I think it's that drive, that need to innovate that defines us.

Ito is the man. He has done what some had began to think was impossible without FI and now you guys are trashing him for it, with a 14 page long pst of bullshit, I don't blame him if he never tells you what he did. If he did do tell us right now what he did to the renisis would you guys really run out and have it done, most likly not. We already know most members are scared shitless to use the bottle and porting an engine is no simple job. So just slow down what until he perfects it and hope that after all your trash talking that he will actually tell you. You guys need to start kissing som serious @## and complementing him on his great automotive skills because you guys couldn't do it, but he did. Put an end to the "Ito slam saga" and just relax.
-Ito and Polak man I wish I could hang with you guys one day.

I can completely understand why Ito is not saying what he has done to his car b/c of fear that Mazda is watching him do to his previous problems with them. But I also understand why people are so pissed at him for coming on hear and not telling us what he has done - that is childish of him regardless of the fact that he has a perfectly good reason not to share info at this time.

IMO, Ito should have named this tread "Renesis Capable of Making 240 whp." Then he could have just said that his shop built and RX-8 that dyno'd at 239 whp after such and such was done to it.

If that would have been done, Ito could have shared his info with everyone without any fear of voiding his warranty or pissing off certain members because no where would he have said that the work was done on his car, just that it had been successfully done to a RX-8. Then all would have been well...hopefully .

Master8 Before you hijack this thread with you im so much better then all you garbage just do us a favor and stop.

ITO made 240rwhp on a motor that appears to be stock under the hood there only a few things he could have done. Porting being the most likely IMHO.

So end it stop questioning him, respect his reasons for not saying flat out he did this and that.

How would you feel if your coils fried after running the Canzoomer unit and you posted it on the forum, then when you went to the dealer for new coils they had a printed out copy of your post.

Would you believe that Mazda has actual employees that monitor probably even post on this forum.

And if your questionable enough they might even have a book on you

Proving it isn't hard im sure you could deny it in a court room and win but in the dealerships office it’s a little difficult. Just look at all the "Post Pictures of Yourself" threads and how many times have you seen someone not bother to black or white out their license plate number.

Thanks PoLaK for clearing out the Master8 troll. Is there any way we can clean this thread up? I'm still curious about Ito's methods, but this thread is hard to navigate through.

back on topic - is porting and polishing any different on a rotary engine than a piston engine? I didn't that a P&P could yield such power gains, but that was based on my piston knowledge.

whats does a good P&P job cost?

I believe in both situations, you're opening the port area in order to flow more air. The higher the mass flow rate, the more power you are going to make.

one thing i do not understand- if mazda has already called him out for past issues than the game is already over. why hide it now? they already know who is and undoubtley have read this rather interesting tale in this thread. so they already know who he is and that he has doen something to the car. he wont ever get any warrenty work done any way because they will just deny every claim not knowing what part he has modified.

again- not questioning that he has done what he says. just dont understand keeping it secret if he is worried about the "mazda police". ergo he is not protecting just himself but someone else as well.

I don't think it is port/polish. Why hide it from mazda if you've already obviously voided the warranty. You can't just undo an operation like that.

Hey Polak, I know you also have no idea what happened to Ito's "stock" engine, but were you around when he did his runs or did you hear his 8 when it is running? The reason I'm asking this is: "Did his 8 sound stock? Or was there a steady growl or louder volume to it?"

...just one of the questions in my head right now :D
