Well I spoke too soon, it looks like the car just isnt going to be ready in time. The tune is just way off. Its running so rich its backfiring and missing. The damn muffler caught fire in the garage after I got back today from a little test session. So its pretty safe to say you wont see it at deals. Its upsetting but I just wouldnt feel safe driving it right now.

Yeah Marco came over yesterday a brought back my Datalogit so we tuned the idle and looked at a few other things, I didnt get a chance to see if the Wideband is working or not , I posted a question in the ECU forum for that. The injector map was set extremely rich and it looks like the entire map is way too rich.

While I don't have an RX8, (yet) I'm coming up to take pictures and hopefully talk to you guys and see what problems/aftermarket/general information I can come across.
