Welcome tonopistons! That's cool that you're using a rx8 as a father son project. I suggest mazdatrix.com for suspension upgrades. Renisis upgradesare best done in your nearest rotary shop

Thanks!, What do u recommend for a turbo? and do u know anything abt a msd?

Lol msd is a company that makes performance ignition systems. As for turbo's, there's a lot of work that needs done before you can slap a turbo on. Once that work is done then you'll choose one based off of what you want.

Oh ok, sorry for the questiona but what do u think we should do next to it?

If you're looking at engine upgrades, Ecu would be your best bet. With the renesis you can't do many upgrades other than cold air intake and exhaust with the stock ecu
