So far everything works great. Start up has been getting slower even before the battery replacement so I actually have a new Denso starter from Automotive OE Replacement and Performance Parts - In Stock for Your Tune-Up! ready to go in to replace my 133,000 mile unit.

edit: came up blank for 2008 model year, got one for 2005, but no way I'm paying $300+ F-that. It also doesn't state the output

yeah their prices are a bit on teh high side for certain items. I have contacted them about the discrepancies in the years of RX-8's and the prices. partsgeek has the same Denso for almost $100.00 less

Boost leaks suck, I thought I blew the engine. But this cold weather is awesome! The car is running great. I hope to get on the dyno for some logging and tuning here soon after Christmas.

^ No I know haha, I was just referencing the fact that Texas does not get "cold" weather.... where I live, I can tell you that pre-FI and post-FI my car runs waaay smoother in cool weather and even better in actual cold weather; as long as there is traction lol
