If I ever do mod the Rx8 it will be very very little things. Exhaust (more specifically, replacing cats with a mid pipe, and muffler), intake, and a tune. Netting closer to 300 horsepower at the flywheel would be sufficient enough for me to be happy with as it is my daily driver as well.

I wish you the best of luck with your numbers. I just wouldn't expect a whole whole lot. Keep in mind that the best bridgeported all motor six port 13B I've ever seen was barely over 200 horsepower.

several guys on the RX8 club forums are claiming 200+ on sock ports with tuning. teamRX8 i think was claiming 250 with a "long header" and a racing cat, and lots of tuning.

I feel you on the "over 250 flywheel" I'm pretty tired of how slow this car is on pickup. Regardless, it'll be supercharged later this year, so if the port work doesn't give me what I want, that will.

Please post the figures once you get them, it will defninitely enlighten everyone on the potential of the Renesis.
