Welcome! I am also new to the RX-8, but not new to rotaries.

If you want to make your 8 better, focus on suspension, don't worry too much about power, or bling.

Just. Got the 04? It is prolly in your best interests to do the seafoam diy. Also register with Mazda so you can know if you have all the service bulletin s performed. Congrats on buying an amazing car!
