MM is great and incredibly knowledgeable, but you shouldn't treat anything anybody says as gospel. That being said, I'd take MM's opinion over almost anybody else's on this forum, especially when it comes to FI and tuning the 8.

With all the knowledge that he has, He is still human. Thats not to say that he is wrong on this subject cause I have no clue, but it's possible for a person to be wrong.
But wait he's not human, He's a maniac!

• Some say he never blinks, and that he roams around the woods at night foraging for wolves...
• Some say he’s wanted by the CIA, and that he sleeps upside down like a bat...
• Some say he appears on high value stamps in Sweden, and that he can catch fish with his tongue...
• Some say he is illegal in 17 US states, and he blinks horizontally...
• Some say that his breath smells of magnesium, and that he’s scared of bells...
• Some say he naturally faces magnetic north, and that all his legs are hydraulic...
Something I learned very early in life:
Ask never a question for which you haven't already the answer.
If you truly are in need of an answer, search, don't ask.
You will never truly have your questions answered by an answer. Only a search can fulfill that need.

Listen MM you definitely have outstanding knowledge when it comes to tuning, the AP (of course), and many other subjects. Just lots of people do take you as the gospel on the RX-8 club when it comes to Rotaries and in reality you are still very much an amateur relation to others in the world of Rotaries.
Your confidence on the other hand is very developed and you are highly assertive so people fall in line...meanwhile you have never taken a Rotary over 800hp (and NEITHER have I) but there are many who have and they would disagree with you on many points.
I just wish you would be more humble about your knowledge, we know you have lots of it...but for those who are deep in this world (and I would consider you in deep) many do not respect you like you deserve to be respected since you usually pretend to know everything and criticize different information instead of researching it. Meanwhile if you did seek out those who know infinitely more then you and learned a bit more instead of telling (as you are obviously a great teacher, seriously that is your forte) you would gain that respect.
On a side note the AP and other products like it are the key to unlocking this engine and simplify tuning for a whole new generation of RX-8 owners...do I or other Rotary enthusiasts have the knowledge that you do on this subject? ABSOLUTELY NOT...that is where we are humble...we are looking towards you and that project with bright eyes wondering what you can accomplish...I wish you would look with bright eyes onto others in the community.
This was written with sincerity and respect.

that's good enough for me - if you had tried to claim you were right 100% of the time I could have had some fun ....
edit: on second thoughts - perhaps not so much fun .
You seem to have an uncanny ability to make it look like you are right (to most onlookers) even if you aren't , so arguing with you can be pretty futile ......

Second, the JDM spec does NOT have different ratios.
Unless you have the 5-speed, there are no differences in gear ratios in any market for the Y6M. They are all 1.645 in 3rd gear.
How, ignoring the facts for a moment, was it "proved beyond any doubt"?
What "scientific" method was employed? Took the tranny apart?
If you can't refute something by syllogism, then it is correct.
The problem is, people want to base arguments on bad premises.
Global warming.
Religion.
Speedometers.
These are N/A cars, too.

I say NOOO to 4 inch exhaust, mostly cus they will have an issue fitting with our car
MM is never right, that's why my car is running perfectly and doesn't have a dead motor and my Nitrous runs 100 shot no problem and my EMU ran fine with no tune
etc etc etc
