    As long as the engine is in good condition a rebuild is not required. Fuel pump and fuel injector upgrade service is included, that is all that is required for the fuel system upgrades. ACT street strip is the clutch we recommend, and sell. Stock will work fine up to 300rwhp. Tuning is hard with the Cobb AP, easier with the adaptronic we sell. Dyno tuning is essential for a safe tune over 300rwhp. Adaptronic has anti lag built into the software.

    Correct. One of our customers made 550rwhp with a bigger turbo fuel cell/external fuel pump/return regulator and E85..

    Yes easily, just convert to E85 and run a higher boost pressure.

    Thank you very much, yes it's an 04 with only 30,000 on her, and I’ve taken very good care of her since getting her in 04, it's time for boost. All my cars are boosted and it is something the rx-8 defiantly needs. So I take it with the motor re-build with better studs and a bridge port or a street port and beefier apex seals with a fuel safe in the trunk full of race gas you can start cranking up the boost with this kit? I'm shooting for more in the 400 to 450 wheel horse range.

    • @ryanturriff6020
      @ryanturriff6020 3 роки тому

      I'm finding this hard to believe. the renesis by design isn't the most reliable of rotarys and the 10:1 compression makes it hard to turbo. if you are pushing 425 boosted, i would think the motor wouldnt have long to live. what have you done to create a more reliable system? and why not just go with a REW swap with some bolt ons?

    • @twinblade02
      @twinblade02 2 роки тому

      @@ryanturriff6020 I'm of the opinion that it isn't impossible but the cost isn't worth it at all. You could just as easily make about 300 bhp with the stock MSP engine (no porting), *some* boost and a decent turbo kit but it'll cost you a small fortune compared to the higher end big boi numbers.
      If you want MORE power, the REW swap or 3 rotor (20B) cosmo is the way to go but as I understand it, it'll cost you about 35 to 60k just to run those setups.
      Most people would rather just rebuilt and either streetport or semi-bridgeport the reman engine to keep it reliable, but leave out any thought of FI kits. Porting it gives you some decent hp figures tbh and I'd rather stick to design specs.

    @TurblownEng Easily? I haven't followed the FI scene for the RX-8 closely in a while, but I have yet to see a 13B-MSP make 450 rwhp. Even if there has been one, I don't think you could say it was "easily" done. Also, porting on these engines is fairly limited and I don't think there are enough ported and turbocharged RX-8's to say what kind of results could be consistently expected.

      Scott D I'm wondering because IIRC, someone told me the 4-Rotor Le Mans-winning rotary monster got about 2 miles per gallon 0.0 It cannot possibly be THAT bad with only 2 rotors, right? But then again, RX8's get shitty mileage to begin with, usually only 16-18mpg realistically. With a massive turbo causing much more rapid and violent combustion from all the extra oxygen forced into the chambers, I wonder how much more fuel consumption there is..? Maybe 8-10mpg?

    • @d.j.p.

      OtherSyde The 787B did roughly 7 liters per lap (4.6 mpg)! Also weight plays a large factor: 830kg/1830lb (787B) vs 1373kb/3027lb (RX-8) and aerodynamics if you are trying to compare them!

    Btw, launching a spooled up renesis at 4k is personal preference, depending on how you tune your turbo timer. So your false therer. Launching a bone stock rex at 5500, you were almost correct, but nope. You gain power at 5 grand. till 8.5- 9 grand is cool, but dont tempt overrev with her, because your next shift- will be a ugly one. Carry her lovely through all gears. 5,000rpm-8,500 rpm.
