TitaniumTT's I hope I make it to DGRR '09 Build

Thats high on a 1000cc inj for only 15lbs or less... crazy! I'm still plotting that side of my setup out. I'm sure I'll end up with 1300 or 1600 secondaries. Been contemplating running four secondaries though instead and two primaries... we'll see...

I'll discuss the "fun" ports when I get to that stage... its the big key difference between your engine build and mine and w/ Nismo's (Kevin?) as well.... we will all have uniquely different setups which will be cool to see the power curves. Peak power will probably be within 50hp or so of each other.

My trans was rebuilt about 12K miles ago, but nothing special. It shifts fine, but that was with a street ported S5 block and ported stock S5 turbo around 8psi... nothing crazy. I'd rather get the trans addressed while its out of the car then put it in only to have to take it back out. It is a jspec version as well, so no overdrive for me

Maybe someday I'll venture down the 6spd path...

For the LS2 coils it wouldnt be a simple swap of the pack unfortunately since I have RB race wires which have a different boot connector than whats needed for the LS2. So I'd have to make a pull, swap the pack, pull the wheel and swap the wires - not hard, just an extra step involved. 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).
