Flashing CEL then death. Wouldn't stay on and it was rumbling like it was knocking the walls off. Any ideas?

I really have no idea how it happened. Everything was fine till last night... And he was with me. I think I'm gonna find a 13B-REW TT and swap engines depending on the tranny hook up.

So you guys were driving the RX8 untuned pushing full boost? Just curious trying to figure out what happened and why the heck would you swap engines with THAT engine.

Don't jump to comclutions until you do a compression test. This is what I have been saying for how long now.
