Is the standard ecu still being used? Or are you using a seperate engine management along side the rx8 ecu for the rest I the car?

Quote from: antnicuk;803038good to see your still experimenting Carl.   On the Kit car which had an original unported 6 port engine that hadnt been rebuilt at all, we managed 251 at the fly on re worx dyno which is quite a conservative dyno.  That was with a home made exhaust (89db static), big air filter and a Motec ecu as the only mods, so there is a little more to be had from the stock engine.

It doesn\'t put 251 out now, maybe 151 if it\'s lucky...:Giggle


I\'d be very interest if you have a dyno chart to see the torque curve, thinking about experimenting a bit more with our race engine (P.S, will a 3-rotor Renesis price give me heart attack?)

Inlet manifold has been modified.
I will get a torque curve on this fairly soon.
3 rotor is expensive yes. it\'s not just the custom bits for the engine but the manifolds and throttle bodies and engine management. It all adds up.
I have stock ecu on the RX8 with tweeks!
We warranty our rebuilt engines for Detonation, track day\'s and RWYB and NOW for 30 months which is two and half years or 30,000 miles
We also build all types of race or road engines.
We build race and track cars too.
Any kind of porting undertaken.
Single turbo conversions.

Quote from: lowslowandold;803184what an amazing develope for the rx8! must of taken a lot of developement to get to a street version, do you leave the roller barrels in? have done anything to them?
 
would love to see picture\'s, and to be the first awesome work :Ladys-man

Do I detect a note of sarcasm? yes I do. LOL!:D

Price for a bare engine would do me if you could give me a ballpark figure? We\'re already running a DTA S80 on the RX8 motor, and a manifold wouldn\'t be a problem ;)
