That sounds awesome. The T2 harness has a different pinout thant the SE harness, so I'm betting the ECU wasn't getting some signals it needed. Make sure you don't boost much, since the ECU won't know how to handle it. I'm betting that you're running a bit rich with 550s in there, so it shouldn't be too bad. I've got a spare MAP if you are missing that (the ECU uses it for load).

I'd like to stop by sometime today, tonight, or tomorrow if that is OK with you. I'll need some contact info; I'll PM my cell.

I'm stoked. This will be exactly one year since my first track event, on the same track, even (VIR North Course). The RX-7 has better tires, better gears, a working LSD, and better ECU than before; can we say FUN?

One of these days, we need to attend the same event

We need a roll call of who is going Wednesday night to Langley. Anyone know if Matt and Stewy will be running? How about you Kenny? I plan to go either way, even though I might be sorta busy this week.

Bummer........ I don't have the headlight cover anymore (long story.....). No reason Matt can't race it anyway???? I do have the drivers side harness (I don't envy anyone changing it) but it is available.

Some other Mazda people I know are going to be racing. Should be a pretty good night. Everyone needs Monty's engine he has been giving away for a long time now :-)

Have you got a good tank for carb cleaner to soak rotor housings?

I know at least 3 or 4 people looking for an FC 13B right now. I didn't know of anyone that wanted one for the past 6 months.

Looks like Wolf just came out with a new ems, the Wolf V500 ECU. The price is $1,895.00 AU dollors so it with be less than that in US dollors(about $1472.00). It looks like a very nice unit and they updated their software too, but I wish it was a little cheaper.
Here is a link to the new unit.

hahaha I've been hanging out with Jerry too much is what it is haha. 2 full cars, a blown Na engine, 90 or 91 man. trans. S5 bumpers and a fender, i will have 2 spare radiators soon because I ordered a koyo from RB. as long as its not turbo or non power I probably have it now hahaha.

on a side note, anyone know any other drifters I could talk to, i posted something on dragva/drivenVA and the only response i got was to search the twisties or go to lookoutdrift.com and that was probably the most useless info I've ever gotten on a forum.
