I just bought my 2004 RX8 with a manual tranny. Its slower then any of my previous cars but I love the way it feels and handles. I am trying to decide on a upgrage path and am wondering if anyone has any dino pulls on the standard upgrades such as intake, exhaust, ecu reflash, stuff like that, or is forced induction the only way to get significant power increases.
Thanks in advance
