Question Install or not to install?

i have a canzoomer waiting to be installed on my 8, and i am wondering if i can install it without tuning it right away. Is that a bad idea, i heard that it might run too rich and end up braking the motor without tuning it. i am also wondering about the racing beat flash, is there any point of getting it if i have a chip going into my 8. If there is a benifit to getting it then would i have to do it before or after i do the install? i have mazdaspeed cai intake sr highflow cat and borla exhaust, is there even a point of tunning it at all since i dont have a turbo?

Install a grammar chip in your brain first.

Aside from capitalization, a comma that really ought to be question mark, and a couple missing commas, what are you taking issue with? There's considerably worse grammar here.

Canzoomer wont do much to your car. a lot of people removed them from their 8 already.

I suggest you to try RB flash.

canzoomer Is only a fooler Module. about every 70 miles the computer needs to be reset To actually get the benefits of the box. the module was from the early early days of the rx8 And is pretty far behind the benefits and technology of the racing beat flash. however much you paid for it, it was too much.

so you guys are saying theres no point in tuning the car with the canzoomer chip? what kind of gains does the racing beat flash give you?

About 10hp check their site, they have an engine dyno up

www.racingbeat.com

EDIT: You should check out the site to see what else it does like raise the rev limit to 9300 and turn the fans on earlier to help cooling
