I need parts!

First time tuner here and i swear i'm mentally challenged. For some reason I can't find where to buy the proper parts for my 8. Most links on this website are broken, or i can order stuff but they don't offer model numbers or tell me any stats on the part i'm buying on their website. If i'm gonna start spending thousands of dollars on my car, i need to be sure i'll be getting the right upgrades.

To be more specific, for now I want the Canzoomer ECU (love the installation walkthrough BTW!) and the greddy exhaust that is claiming 22hp gains or the B&B exhaust claiming 19hp. Could someone please tell me the link or refer me to a shop so i could buy these upgrades? canzoomer.com is a terrible site...looks like just a circle of search engines to me..

First thing, Canzoomer...HAHAHA! Greddy exhaust 22hp gains, NOT, more like 2hp, and B&B 19hp gain, another maybe 2 hp gain. And I would have to agree with you, you seem to be mentally challenged, there is a search tab just above that holds all the answers.

Do not get the canzoomer you can lose some power and the claims by greddy and B&B are false. With the Greddy exhaust and B&B your only going to see around 5-10 hp increase. Check out www.mazsport.net they have a midpipe that you can live with the B&B is loud. Mazsport also has the INT-X ECU or the Cobb AP handheld tuner.

I would just get the canzoomer plus an electric supercharger....then some nawzzzzzzzz. You will then have an electric nawz-spitting supercharger that injects massive amounts of electrically charged nawz powered air that will propel you to INSANE amounts of HP and TQ all controlled by the canzoomer ecu!1!1 Oh man the chicks you will get for that setup.......do it FTW!!1!1

Perhaps the canzoomer threads should be unstickied so as not to confuse newbies?

awesome

Thx guys for your help. I'm tryin to learn all i can without asking the ever annoying question "What is the best thing i can get?" As for Greddy exhaust...even if the HP gains are false, I have read that they are the least constrictive and best for high power installations. Is this true? My 8 will be a high power machine, i'm just starting with ECUs and exhaust because it seemed like a good place to start.

scratch that. After my prev. post i've been reading on this site for a few hours...i think i'm gonna say phuk it...i'm buyin a phukin FI system I'll worry about the piddly crap when it actually matters.

The Greddy system from MM has been recommended. But it specifically says "Upgrade kit for the RX-8 Turbo." i am currently N/A so i don't know if this is for me.
