No **** ! Most the the time I'am chasing Keith or Tim around looking for an update
Well, just got off the phone with Keith from SFR. Keith called me and told me their web sites down ( I aready new that cause always checking) so they can download Dynos for the Rx8... Keith said this baby is making 292HP at the wheels and at 6psi..... WOW ...... I told him I'am the first or second.... Keith also said there is plenty more from this setup, But (there is always a but) NEED FUEL SYSTEM UPGRADE... I think we can handle that..... I will keep checking to see when their web site is up and report to you guys for we can all see their Dynos...

Tommorow, I'll be able to post all of the dyno charts, pricing etc. Maybe even video footage.

The 280WHP @ 7psi was a baseline untuned run, and the new numbers are 292 @ 6 PSI

Rotoman

That's what we want, thanks

Tigster

Lets see some pics, or a video. Anyway to get an idea of $$ or are they figuring out the fuel first?

I just hope it doesnt price itself out of the market.

SSR Engineering

The final pricing will be better then anything thats been posted so far.

You may have stated this sometime before, but what did you end up using for tuning?

SSR Engineering

we used the Ric Shaw ECU, otherwise known as the TSI unit.

Rotoman

Rumor has it , maybe Greddy e-manage

SSR Engineering

Well right now its the TSI, but in the future we might move on to the E-Manage since it virtually has all of the same basic capabilities as the TSI and it is quite a bit cheaper.

OK, but for 120 hp. DAM! thats gonna cost 5 grand im guestemating.

Shamblerock

Pics, videos, dynos and track times. You are on to something very big and could generate a lot of buyers. SSR, keep us posted as soonas you have any info to share at all.

SSR Engineering

For everything that you're going to get with this kit will be well worth the money. Including a life-time manufacturer's warranty, 300~WHP and plenty of potential for more power.

So I guess thismeans that SSRs kit is the one you buy if you would like to have an Rx8 that outperforms an E46 M3.

I hope their kit is released for/the automatic down the road too. A 300 bhp automatic rotary would also be just super. Comfort and speed.

And the forced induction competition begins...who will be next?

Rotoman

I have to tell with almost 300whp from the SFR/SSR turbo, and the fact this setup can push much more I think you could'nt ask for any more, aleast that's my opinon.

Bindon

Pretty impressive for only 6 PSI of boost,

Correct me if im wrong, but doesn't GReddy's kit operate at 7 PSI, then drop to 5 at hight revs?

If so, definately a very VERY well designed system.

Rotoman

I thought Philodox said his runs 7psi all the way to redline. hey Philodox.

Bindon

Shows how much better designed this turbo really is!

Now, its likely a bigger turbo, so im guessing there will be alot more lag then the GReddy kit will have as well. But cmon, 300 whp!

And this one is DEFINATELY CARB certified

army_rx8

i thought our stock fuel injectors could only handle up to around 285ish whp. could've sworn i read that somewhere. hmm insteresting indeed. can't wait fo rsomeone to buy this and try it out. but i think i'll decline to be the ginnie pig. mostly b/c i'm not nearly fuzzy enough:p

Rotoman

army rx8, I think it's close. What I'am hearing there is enough fuel to push about 300whp then you would have to go to bigger injectors and maybe upgrade rhe whole fuel system, which after talking with Rotarygod and others , does,nt seem that that big big of a deal....

army_rx8

i wonder if you could add 2 more injectors to the system? i'm pretty sure teh greddy e-manage...adn probable the TSI can handle up to 8 injectors. i wonder if that would work....hmmmmmmm

slllygrl10

PLS PLS PLS tell me this will work for the auto's?! I want to be a ginnie pig!

SSR Engineering

Yep we maxed out the injectors, we are going to include larger ones with our kit.

army_rx8

ahhhh sweet can you tell us what size you went with (also who makes them) hehe thanks for the response.:D

Rotoman

That's music to my ears, thanks SSR
