I don't know. I think that sticker is good for about 5hp. Maybe 10hp if you straighten it, but that's not usually how these things work. Something like a VTEC sticker would definitely give you 15hp at least.

Seriously, do what YOU want.

At least you HAVE twin turbos.

That Ferrari did NOT have a turbo, according to that site. That makes me sad

I like it and maybe I will wait a while, I know some guys are purists and that cool. Now if someone put "May-tag dishwasher" emblem on I might think this guys whacked up.

No, "freeze dried ***" is reserved for things as heinously ugly as SpoolinRX's body kit.

As Clayne said, it's too busy, it's crooked, and it looks out-dated, like you stole it off another car or engine -- which you did. Do you need any more help making a decision?

The main reason I decided not to have an interest in the RX8. People think the rotary is some ******* new technology since that damn rotor billboard came out.. Just like Ford to over badge yet another vehicle..
