check it out. my car was featured in this article on motormavens. they even call out Sage Autosports. found out the guy that wrote it PMed me here on VAdriven.




This brilliant blue RX8 hailed from Virginia and is sponsored by Sage Autosports in Virginia Beach (great guys by the way). Try as I might, after five minutes of trying to spot the turbo I gave up – but rest assured, this RX8 is turbocharged. The only true tell-tale signs come from the front mount intercooler and the HKS bov. The gold SSR GT2-H wheels look amazing and finish off the overall stance of this beast.
here's a link to the rest of the article.

pretty good so far.

i lost compression on the rear rotor while i was there. i think i over-boosted due to a faulty wastegate actuator hose.
