I've always like the RX8's external looks, but they were just not quick enough from the factory. 300 HP would've made it a real contender, but for the price too many people would rather buy something else.

BTW, looks like that K&N is on backwards, am I wrong?

The K&N isn't on backwards. It's a reverse cone, and I had to special order it because I couldn't find another one that would fit the inlet tube on the BOV. It's a Syanpse Engineering Synchronic BOV (no diaphragm) and actually sucks air in under vacuum.
As it sits, I can smoke the tires through the 1st three gears, and it can be scary to drive in the rain. It will eat stock GT Mustangs, SRT4's, etc for lunch.
The reason the RX8 is so special is: A) it's a rotary! B) the suspension that they gave it from the factory is sooooo silky smooth. It really does handle like butter, and is ready to hit the track straight from the factory.
