Default My Mazda RX-8 Turbo Project and Eclipse GSX Project (PICS)

For those who don't know, I've been working on a couple of my own time attack cars for the race event I'm putting on next month here in AZ. You can find more information about the event here:

https://www.dezodwest.com/dds.htm

RX-8
-Custom Dezod West components added to a base Greddy Turbo kit.
-Greddy EvoTT exhaust
-Greddy Type-S Coilovers (To be installed soon)
-Apexi AVCR Boost controller
-AEM Wideband A/F Gauge
-StopTech Brake upgrade
-TSW Wheels with Nitto Invo Tires (275/40/1
-Many other misc mods or mods we do not want public yet

Ok guys...

Here's the pics of the Greddy EvoTT exhaust system for the RX-8. It sounds incredible, and the fit and finish are among the best of exhausts I've seen. If you have questions about the exhaust let me know! (Can't list sales here )






So far so good!


GSX - Specs are minimal for now until I near completion of the build.

So far,

18G turbo, Walbro 190lph, Greddy FMIC, ACT 2900, Tein SS coilovers, Apexi SAFCII and TT, Greddy Bov, K&N FIPK, Apexi N1 downpipe and cat-back, etc...

More of the Mazda will be up as we do more of the build. Right now some parts are unannounced. Thanks for the compliments though. Both will drastically change as time goes on.

that exhaust is SEXY for sure , never was impressed by the rx8 , but it's a nice car to drive , just not that good looking IMO or fast enough , the turbo will be nice if it works out well

if your going to run any boost on that 18g get a 255 fuel pump.. Also please tell me you didn't buy the greddy 18g turbo kit .. also might looking into another intercooler.. that model has been know to overheat the car because of the placement of the pipeing, also it's alot of pipe. short route owns!

let me know if you need any help on the eclipse i have built a few. 2.3 stoker 2.1 stroker, 2 2.0s most i put down was 534awhp this was with a basic tune
