Later version of E-Shaft on S5 NA ?
Im going to pull the engine out and rebuild it soon. and Im going to use a lot of brand new parts, E-Shaft is one of them.
Reason I will use Renesis E-Shaft over stock E-shaft :
- Its about 0.6 lbs lighter, better geometry, better balanced.
- Mazda does not have Stock E-shaft in stock, and god knows if they're going to make it again.
I know Renesis's e-shaft works with older engines. but Im just wondering if I drop this in, do I need to get everything else professionally balanced ?

To my knowledge, the e-shaft from an RX8 should work based on balance alone, as the rotors and counterweights have the impact. If someone else can correct me if I am wrong, I'd like to know but I do believe the RX8 e-shaft will work.
