We are working on the supercharger & manifold for the Rx8 engine to fit into alternative applications.... like boats and generators and such, so we wont have to seal with the stock computer..............

the 3mm apex seals are to beef the apex seals up alittle as the rx78 ones are not as strong as the earlier years!

More later........ '-)

reman is $2400ish, new is $5623.00, and thats the block with no intakes or anything. the mt/high power intakes are another $4k.... then you need to think about the ecu to run it all.....

4 port/AT intakes ar cheaper, dunno if its gonna make power though?

wow that is alot of cash. you would be better rebuilding it your self.

$4k for an intake no way

I know someone selling a Renesis if you're serious about getting one, engine and tranny. But honestly, if you're looking at that kind of money, you'd probably be better off with a 3-rotor, which will definitely provide you with more torque.
