i wasn't aware that someone even had this kit on their 8? who is it?

davefzr

A guy who used to live in Santa Barbara who moved back east.. Other than that I dont know of anyone who has this kit..

SpeedForceRacing

I think it is because people are scared because we dont have a name like Greddy and because of the price.The kit is worth every penny. We are making a solid 280+ at the wheels with room for improvement.

There is a local guy that has seen the kit and bought it.We will be installing his kit very soon.We did have a customer back out of a kit because he is being shipped to Korea for a year and is selling his car so now we have a system on the shelf.Normally there is a six week wait time for one of our kits.So if anybody is interested, give us a call.

I'll buy it from you when its done. It would be awesome for my rx8 to have more torque than my tercel.

Have you finalized price and shipping?

IMO I think people are not buying due to the price, not the company's name. It's a lot of $ to fork over and then possibly blow your seals some time in the future. If I spend that much it will be with a Mazdaspeed FI (if it ever comes out) and still keep my warranty.

I think people are not buying because as far as we know it hasnt been finished yet, and of course there are still no dyno sheets posted as promised either . . .

SpeedForceRacing

There is a dyno sheet on our website with 281 at the wheels.I will see if I can find the dyno chart with the 287 hp numbers.

You all's kit isn't compatible with the autos correct?

SpeedForceRacing

We beleive it is but we want to have a look at an auto car to make sure.

Here's the dynochart. And like everyone else I am wondering why you guys didn't dyno it up to 9k rpm.. or was this answered already?

SSR Engineering

on that run we were dyno'ing on the stock fuel system, at that RPM we ran out of fuel so we had to cut it short.

SSR Engineering

It's been long finished, our customer has been driving it around for the past few months. Not to mention he moved to utah from santa barbara and had no problems the whole way there.

salituro64

It's over two years now. How many people do we have out there using this setup? I haven't seen much mention of it on the forum anymore.

there could be alot, its just that none of them are rx8club.com people.

I personally interested in anything (Greddy,Mazsport, SFR, Blitz)but I wanna see more input before I put my bet in.

Hmm, one thing about your website tho,

I didnt know that my car can rev up to 100K rpm without killing myself. :P

I thought the stock system gave up at 8K RPM ? where did the 325 whp @ 10K rpm @ 9psi came from ?? -_-

well i have the pipes... but i am using a different turbo, fuel system and the int-x... and it will be tuned by scott.... i should have numbers here in a few months... the irs hit me with a 4k bill.... so priorities have shifted some

SpeedForceRacing

The car stops making alot of power at 8000 rpms or so but you can still rev it to 10k and it still makes lot more power then stockat 10k rpms.This is a really old post and as you can see,we have eclipsed the 300WHP mark and even the 325WHP mark

salituro64

I thought I read that the computer shuts off the gas at aound 9500 RPMs?

I have installed the SFR kit and it is running fine even in hot summer heat we have now! Nice...

i have one....well the pipes.. and i will be installing it soon

ALXVA8

I believe that there was someone else who had it installed. He was in Maryland, but I havent'heard anything from him. He said that he would post results, but never did. Maybe he's just out enjoying the drive and could never make it back to his computer.

SpeedForceRacing

The last guy that posted here about his kit(and he is from San Diego) was flamed so bad he said he wasnt going to come on the boards anymore.

What would be the price for certain parts only?

1. header (exhaust manifold)
2. downpipe
3. turbo
4. IC (including piping)

Do you have to make any modifications to existing car setup to install these 4 parts? (like remove battery, remove water tanks, EGR, etc etc?)
