Damn, that air filter does look pretty big. 16hp would be great.

Lol... hope i can join in here from rx8forum. Getting a bit tired of the pointless arguements going on over there now. True, there's a lot of info on there, but so many idiots as well!

Man, the rx8 forum always bugs me whenever I read their posts, mostly just a bunch a rich dipshits or wannabe rx8 owners.



That intake looks really good on the rx-8, custom maf even. I think to see that 16 HP you would need to replace the k&n with an apex



But dynoed...16 RWHP...no way.

I was called a troll and told I know nothing about Rotaries at the RX-8 Forum. I was told to go away. So I did.





I was told by prominent members of their forum on this bord I was an ******* because I predicted the HP problem was real.



Water under the bridge. Its good to see some quality members from there filter in over here.



Welcome to No pistons guys. Its fun here.
