No, because at the moment, it's not even possible.

The intake and exhaust ports are right next to each other, making it really hard to get a turbo working right, and Mazda's trying to come up with a turbo technology that prevents the problems caused by the ports.

I have a japanese drift video and I believe it has a turbo rx8 in it. I cant understand what they are saying but I swear they say turbo when describing it and I haven't watched it for awhile but I think I remember hearing either the slight sound of a turbo or blow off valve....hmmm?
