The following has a great tech sheet on how to break in a new engine, engine timing, temperatures, torque specs etc. www.mazdamotorsports.com the click on tech at the top of the page, then go to the bottom under misc.

 

Yeah some great info!

Whoever doesn't have the book "How to Modify your Mazda RX-7" written by Dave Emanuel and Jim Downing, should definatly check out that tech section.

 

but what happen if you got somekind of stand alone ecu and need to go to the dyno...
then to tune ....dont you need to rev your engine to the red line??

 

I'm assuming your talking about having a new motor, right?

You have to get the standalone setup for a break-in period, then once its properly broke in, take it to a dyno and then tune it for the full RPM range.

 

yea....new motor with stand alone...

i didnt know there is such thing as a break in period for the stand alone as well...

thanks

 

He doesnt mean that the acutal Standalone is going through a break in period. Just have the Standalone roughly tuned just enough to get you by until you've broken in your motor. Ie. If possible, Use the Base maps

 

there isn't, but the engine needs to be broken in. therefore you can't realy tune it untill the engine is broken in. just get it to run as best as you can untill you reach enough km. then go tune it on a dyno.

 

hmm...i am not worry about this break in for a while..
my engine is in rebuild (waiting for some parts to finish) and wiring megasquirt seem isnt easy either.

thanks for the tips tough
