Good post. Impressed by the article. Satisfying to see a RX8 putting out the performance it should always have had. Read that it says it is using the 1st standalone ECU for the 8. Wonder how long b4 it arrives in the uk? Be nice to learn more about it. Wonder wat gains can be made using the standalone without a turbo, not that much i\'m assuming?
 
shame its 13mpg but then again Driving something with that much power, ecomomy is expected to go out the window. Think i would still prefer a 7 for more of a performance/ economy balance.

Also wonder how the mod affected the DSC?
