380PS SFR turbo RX-8 in Hong Kong
One of our customers sent me over Caz Buyer magazine with his RX-8 in it.It has an upgraded (bigger turbo and intercooler)SFR turbo system and some other stuff done to it.He generated 380ps.The magazine is written in Chinese so good luck reading it. It does mention us and various parts of the kit in English though 
Here is the link to it:

Wow, very nice. I would definately buy your kit if I had the money. Congratulations on another successful SFR kitted rx8. They aren't as common as I thought they would be when the kit came out initially. I notice they mention the Emanage Ultimate, I guess its working well for them sine its pushing 380ps.

^^ what he said is so true. They have a VERY VERY strict rules in HK against automobiles modifications. If they see something funny, they pull u over, no questions asked. and go have ur car check.
and let me translate this :
First page :
Small Boost, Big Explosion
100+ HP Up
Second page :
Whole set of SFT Turbo Kit including a very large T-4 Turbine, 46mm Wastegate, Front mount Intercooler and more.
Explosive Rotary Engine , 380ps Turbo Rx-8
Mazda RX-8's charm came from a high compression ratio NA 13-B MSP Rotary engine, its been out for 3 years, newer and better modification method has been found in both USA and Japan, NOS system, Turbo kit and SuperCharger kit and more. But only Turbo kit can give you the most explosive performance level. To be able to release RX-8's highest horsepower, KC Racing created a 380ps Turbo Rx-8. Exclusively for everybody.
Page 3 :
Mazda Rx-8 debut in 2003, with Mazda's exclusive Rotary engine technology, along with a 9,000 rpm high rev 13B-MSP N/A engine. with up to 250ps@8500rpm, and 22.0kgm@5500rpm torque.
In the April of 2003 Rx-8 came to the market, to take over RX-7's place, Mazda re-design a very smooth Sport car chassis, instead of 2 doors the rx-8 comes with 4 doors and 4 seats. On the Engine side of things, due to Japan's air pollution regulations, the old 13B turbo Rotary engine cannot make it thru the new emission standards. Mazda has to redesign a 1.3L 13B-MSP N/A engine for the Rx-8
Too lazy to do the rest ! Ahh you can get the idea :P

It says 0.3 bar in the article, how much is that in psi? does that sound right?

.3 should be 4.35 PSI
here is the linkP- Conversion
but that would be next to nothing... well a big turbo like that will move alot more air even at that PSI

I think he ran 9 psi to generate the power.He says that he needs to do som more tuning in the email he sent me.But this car is going to be road raced.That was their main objective with the car.

380 @ 9psi doesn't sound a little TOO optimistic from a 60-1 to you? even if it had the highest flowing q-trim available (which i'm sure it doesn't).

We made 327WHP @ 9psi

with a 57trim comp wheel,smaller turbine wheel, smaller turbine housing and a smaller intercooler.380WHP is a bit of a stretch but I can tell you the 60-1 is a larger wheel then the 57 and we also went with a larger hotside and turbine trim for this set-up as well as a much larger Spearco intercooler so I think it is possible but we can not confirm this since we wont have the ability to dyno this car here in the states.Also tuning plays a key rols and this car was tuned on a higheroctane fuel then the 91 octane we used so that means they can be much more agreessive with the ignition timing and still keep it safe.

so you made 326 whp...not flywheel, but wheel horsepower at 9psi? you'd be somewhere in the low 60's and borderline off the compressor map.
awesome if it's the truth, but i'd have to see it to believe it.

I put a link to the dyno chart in my previous post. This was done at the Dyno Shop in Santee on a Dyno Dynamics.There is no surging or any other issues with the 57.
