RX8 and im discusted!

And yes, with 43K miles on the stock motor... i believe the compression is starting to fade.. I think mostly because of the emanage. The emanage that came with the kit never really did any good for it... pinged a few times for sure and as a result caused some loss in compression. I've tuned it to idle while hot, but it does have hot-start issues.. when i get some extra $ and time i'm going to swap it out for another stock renesis motor and keep running 8psi... i feel that 8psi on the renesis motor is fine with a good tune and i should be able to get another 50K out a new motor with hard to moderate driving...
