Default Took out a Mazda RX8 with my SRT6

I was rolling down the highway with my girl and I saw this Mazda cruising up ahead in the fast lane, so I rolled into it a little and caught up to him and pointed ahead and goosed it a little, he smiled and nodded so I motioned for him to go and when he went I went soon after and passed him and I took it up to 140 before I let off, he was about 6 cars back.
we started from about 70mph.

There's not really any mods for them. You can do exhaust and intake, that's about it. There are a few companies that make FI kits for them, but they don't produce large gains, and they're really pricey.


They're fun as hell to drive. It's a shame Mazda made them so gutless. If they had another 50hp, they'd be great cars.....
