Tony says, RX8s are GREAT
yes the kit would be complete, there are alot of single turbo kits already. i would prefer to invest on other stuff. also i have a v-mount for the rx8 in the works. it will be first made for the greddy kit since that is widely used in alot of the countries where the rx8 is sold. going global ...lol

We talked before when you were making/selling the exhaust. Let me know if you need a mule for anything. I live about 10 minutes from SacRaceway and frequent it quite often, I have 2 DSMs one's a single digit drag car the other is a 10s street car with a single digit street car in the works.
If there's one thing I know is speed and even though I started off racing around ButtonWillow and ThunderHill first I've kinda veered into Drag racing as well.
Twin turbo sounds kinda scary seeing as no one can keep their 13bs together running the tiny 3071s, dunno how it would do with the twin, but I'd be a mule.

lol, ill probably only want to blow up my motor, thats why i bought an rx8...lol
the exhaust is going to be dual exhaust after the cat. i kind of got delayed on alot of stuff. school, work and getting licenses for the business.
anyways, see you guys tomorrow
p.s. with the smaller turbo, im hoping to be able to use an rpm range from 2k to 4.5 to 5k, it should be good to daily drive, the big turbo will only kick in under wot when you want to go really fast...lol

I zoom therefore I am.
Couple of people have pushed the high WHP on the 8... and the limits on some of the things have been reached. Going from memory it's under 400 for the axles and diff. Near 400 for the drive shaft. Clutch and trans I dont believe have found a common fail hp number... just things to consider while thinking up a dual turbo kit.
It's late so my numbers may be way off, but I know a search should return some threads about it.
