Ok, here is a question..

What the hell is with those two guys that have allready installed the kit??

Danny installed the SC kit a few weeks ago and no one here something about him since that..
i wish he can post a feedback or something.

How does it feel?
How is the throttle response? (in real life)
Driving videos?

And what is with David´s car?
this install should have start last week friday..

I´m a little confused about this lack of information.

I can't imagine that, after the unbelievable (even by MY standards) amount of development time and the seemingly vast R&D process that Mark has endured for this project, he can afford NOT to build a second, third or even fourth batch just to break even.

Wow, that is an excruciating noise.

One man's noise is another man's music. Supercharger whine can be additctive

To some (not everyone, of course) a turbo BOV vented to atomosphere is excruciating. At least that's what the cops tried to explain to me one time...

It's not the"supercharger whine" that is painful, it is the beat frequency of the SC against the engine RPM.
OEs (and other conscientious builders) shoot for drive ratios that are harmonically related.

Yeah, I don't do that noise, either.

Turn It Up
I remember back when Hymee started this whole thing there was a vid of the rear wheels of the mule car on the dyno. The sound was just like this, and it turned me into and addict. I played that over my home theater at full blast. Sweet.

And people say I need to get a life

Well, it's taken a little longer than I hoped (I won't bore you guys with the reasons ) but my car is basically done. Some pics of the install here - https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...=1#post3621121.

Getting tuned and dynoed today (we have a 'before' dyno). Collecting it tomorrow.

Woot!

Last I heard from him he was going out to feed his pet Fierce snake and Funnel-Web spiders.

Can't imagine what's happened to him.
