Meh, not really, look at the power. I originally planned for 350-375 as a starting point and then upgrading if need be. I guess the need be is here. 90% is a little too high and I want to try a new injector. One with a better spray pattern, something a little more predictable and hopefully get my idle above .83-85L ... bleh

Peak power will probably be within 50hp or so of each other.
Uh huh.... uh huh.... I see

It is a jspec version as well, so no overdrive for me Maybe someday I'll venture down the 6spd path...
I'm going to corner the market for the 6-spd FC conversion if this all works out. It won't be all that cheap but it will bolt right in. Just need to address the speedo crap. Not an issue for me..... suckers

Honestly, I'd leave the tranny alone until you start to have problems with it..... JUST DON"T USE ROYAL PURPLE! That stuff blows. The Type R trans is good for some serious HP and torque before it becomes a weak point.

From the rx8 community the general belief is not much on power when your NA, but more about the clean burn and fuel efficiency which is really all I'm looking for and the reliability of them is an added bonus (and cost.. I only paid $20/each).
I see, I see. So even if you had a set of wires premade, you'd still have to pull a wheel to swap wires? That kinda.... sucks. Where in the hell did you find them for $20 each. more importantly, where are the 4 that you didn't get. 'Cuz I want them..... now.
