Sure, just add FI like a turbo and turn up the boost. WAY up.

You'll easily get 600 HP. Oh, and fuel is important. Go get some Nitromethane.

Of course the engine will only last a few seconds, but hey, you got 600 hp!

Tornado Air claim to be little turbochargers - If you stacked 7 or 8 of them; they claim 20hp each, that'd be a good start.

8 x 20 = 160hp


Next use a Flowmaster Turbo Muffler = Philodox got 80hp from HIS turbo....

160+80 = 240

Now Install the +20hp Chip from Ebay, that'll make 280hp over stock...Now you are sitting at 518hp.

100hp Shot of NAWS....

There ya go - 618HP RX8.

That'd be tight, y0!

I plan on hitting 425 rwhp by March. I'll write about it when I do.

drop it off at my house with a pile of money and we'll see how much power we can milk from it.

RX-7's did it, I'm sure if you want to spend the money you can too. However, since no one has made any internal parts (seals, etc) for this engine or lower compression rotors, I think you may have to either be the first (lots of green) or wait a while.

It'd be totally useless.

We smoke the tires stock, never imagine 600whp.

Buy a Supra if you want a dyno queen.

If you want 600 hp take out the Renesis & drop a 3 Rotor in it. Acosta has done this & then some but you are looking at about $60,000 for the complete conversion.
