Opinions on your intelligence level can only be formed by what you post. Most of what you post is incomprehensible.

On another note, what kind of supercharger?

A centrifugal one is great as they follow a similar power curve to the stock motor, you don't get that turbo punch when it comes on. It feels like your always on boost

I need to create a rx8club 5 minute video tutorial before people can create a post. *Don't get me wrong I we all have dreams of being turboed and going fast but when it comes down to it most don't understand what's really involved on these expensive *** little motors. *You have to pay to play.*

I'm just saying research is the key to success.*

A reversed SC setup with cerebrial lines feeding to the turbo pulley is def the way to go, as another member once said on here, its "Baller Spec". I currently am twin turbo on my 10A rotary and its VERY FAST to say the least. Ive gotten it rebuilt twice now and i think im going to sell it and upgrade to a 22B. A 12B swap like what the 1993-1995 3rd gen rx7's (they ended production globally in 1995,Japenese models were older but had different front bumpers than US spec models) might be a solution to your HP numbers and will cost around 5k and those are single turbo from the factory outputting 300hp. Just food for thought, Do you agree?

if i do go (still an if) it might be a rotorex since i've helped a few friends install those, so its not really new to me. on the firebird i has a positive displacement screw type that was very good but i know that wont work on the rotorys from what i've seen (pretty sure there will be someone somewhere saying different and ****)

i'm still diging around the turbo section and finding out more plus my friend that owns a shop down houston already made me promise i wont go with an sts rear mount setup because of the headaches he went throu installing it for a customer.

most of my priority is looking at suspension and HP tolerances of certain parts so i can have a better understanding of what kinda problem the car might throw at me so i know where i made my mistake.
also decided against red today, saw one at walmart looked like it had some good miles on it but i could be wrong cause the clearcoat was missing on almost all the roof and hood from wind burn.

In all seriousness though, if your looking for a fast car, its simply a waste of your time and cash to get it to be competitive at drags and stuff like that. The rx8 is fast around corners and thats where it takes the lead.

Have you driven a rx8 yet? Many people see the numbers and get scared when they see its low.

PERSONALLY i feel as though you have more fun driving a manual, and your situation is pretty lame. If she cant drive stick then buy a used rx8 with the shittiest clutch you can find and have her learn, it takes all of a few hours depending on how many generations of racing is in her blood.

EDIT: better yet, get a shitty manual corolla for her to practice on, that way you get a winter beater out of it aswell.

If it is your daily i dont know how reliable a renesis is on a SC or turbo for daily driving, it might be in 13B territory in terms of reliability, i dont know i havnt researched it on a 8.

Red isnt for me either, too flashy.

Not sure on what colors you like but i think almost everyone likes the 40th anniversary package. though its an 08, newer, special edition so your going to pay for it, not like the 04's you see going for 3k or whatever.

I don't understand why people think when they get in front of a keyboard, that the entire language they grew up learning can go out the window. Honestly, we invent a machine that makes expressing words easier than writing; and we still **** it up.

The worst part of this whole thread is not this new members poor english (or lack there of), its the fact that he doesnt even own an 8 and he is asking about turbo this and supercharge that. Why doesnt he get the car first? Seems like a waste of time for everyone until he actually owns one.
