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

Ying

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

thatpoorguy

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.

Ying

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

Ying

Thank u for all the help even tho u r talking to a complete noob i know nothing abt cars lol what is a ecu and what does it do

Ying

i wanted to help u out so i went and found out what it does etc so basically it changes the engine from stock performance to better performance and i was looking around and found this

Ying
