Working on a Rx-8 sucks in comparison to a FB the engine sits so far back and low everything is a pita to get to and the only way to do some things are from the bottom or remove half of the engine bay to see it.

The worst part of working on the rx8 is you know nothing you're doing is going to make it any faster, lol...

That is why I am not even bothering with power mods until it is out of warranty (2 years from now).

Don't know, don't care... it's a flood car that the owner stopped wanting to put $$$$$ into.... got sold as a roller..... rumor is it's going to be a 3 rotor drag car.... Only way to get any power out of an RX8 is to get rid of the renni
Sooooo I think I'll build the engine on Monday.... day off.... porting is all done.... what do you guys think?

Better hurry up.... your fuel pump should be here monday..... but I'm not working monday.These are actual bdc ports ![]() These are my ports.. I should mention though... these plates came from Chip @ Chips Motorsports. They were headed for the trash but I decided to call him up and see if there was anything that he could do. For about 20% of the cost of new plates.... OH MY FICKEN GOODNESS!!! I literally have BRAND NEW plates. I consider that reconditioning mandatory for any high hp, hgh boost engine... hell, even an n/a if you want it to burn clean and have REALLY good compression. Can't wait to try them out Can't thank ya enough Chip. Now I just need me a few months and a pair of rotors, and a pair of housings, and every new seal imaginable

Yeah I've heard it should be here before. non-stocking dealers suck.
What EGT stuff did you say I needed? I may be making a few extra bucks this week, a '79 Rx-7 is to be dropped off to see if I can revive it. it has been sitting off and on for years only 40,000 miles and original owner. How are the v-mount thoughts coming?
