Paul,
I got this out of a Road & Track "Special Series" on the RX-8
exclusively.  I'm not sure where you could get a copy.  My father-in-law
picked it up at his dentist's office and mailed it to me.  (The dentist
gave it to him... after spending $475 on dental work how could he say
no?)  The picture is a little skewed because it was taken directly from the
magazine and it crossed over the fold.  Pretty cool, none the less.

It has not even hit the showroom floors yet and the after market is already having
their way with it :) I was thinking of building a custom hood with the
air outlets above the modern thin large area rad that is mounted in the RX8 
at a 45 degree angle. Something like these third gen louvers.

(the thick third  gen rad is mounted vertically)
