Default RX-8 turbo

Now money isn't a problem when choosing a turbo for the Mazda RX-8. Now I was wondering what full bolt on turbo kit I should purchase and I was hoping some of you can help me with this. I can install the turbo and intercooler myself, I just need to know which one.

I have a 2004 RX-8 Manual.

P.S. Do I have to have any other supporting mods to run the turbo besides intake and exhaust?

www.greddy.com good reviews. Not street legal in CA. Though Greddy had this to say about my equire about the turbo kits in the RX-8...

Thank you for your interest in GReddy [/align]It has been talked about, But with the Rotary engine being hard enough to smog as is , especially with emissions laws at the highest they have ever been it is almost impossible for this kit to pass with the added turbo . we are trying but i wouldnt see this happening anytime soon if at all.

that is ruff about the smog test but were i live it dosent matter so im going with the greddy kit. greddy is as save as it gets when it comes to turbo kits based on only what i have seen. and there always easy to put on compared to others. not always the most hp but the most leveled over all. at least thats just what i think
