Zach wait and go fri. night.There will be more imports running on fri. and you could run in the street class,then go to fun runs if you get knocked out,and ill be able to watch fri. night but have to work thursday night.

Zach McAfee

Ok, I just saw thursday night test and tune in the brochure they gave us. I guess I'll go Friday then.

I'm jealous. I want to be able to write my own stuff under my avatar. I saw the housings, but I'm still not sure if I'm going to go 12A or 13B.

Zach McAfee

Robin, have you heard from that guy with all the TII verts who wanted a rebuild? I could do it for a TII setup like he offered. I need a new engine. It's gettin a little tired after 60,000 really hard miles. It feels like I'm down 20% since I rebuilt it.
BTW, these goodyear eagles are bad ***! I don't think I'm going with anything else next time!

By TII setup do you mean engine, wiring harness and computer..what all exactly do you want?

Zach McAfee

I'm gonna do the half *** TII swap. I'm keeping the NA drivetrain. I'll need the long block, ecu, and harness. I'm actually hoping my exhaust is restrictive enough to keep boost levels low. I don't want to bust up my drivetrain. I'll do the whole conversion when I get my 3 rotor.

I left a message for Rick to call me. Hopefully I will hear from him tonight. I will let you know.

Josepi

Good luck finding everything Zach...

I'm up to a safeish 9psi...feels too good...need more power...

But I do need to wire in the switch so I can have two boost settings (imagine crawling on your back fishing wires through with a sunburn...um no). Low is going to be at a healthy 3-4psi (thanks cats!) and high boost around 8-9). I've noticed that in 5th gear on heavy loads i'm near maxxing out my injectors...

Zach McAfee

What kind of boost do you expect to run when you get rid of the cats? I'm assuming your "low" setting will be stock levels (8psi?) and your "high" setting...
I think thats bad *** being able to flip a switch for instant fun. Will that switch to a different fuel map too?
Also, I'm really surprised your injectors are maxing out when your fairly close to stock.

Josepi

that's the fun part...I'm guessing that when I get rid of the cats (yet still keep the AFM/stock air box in the TID path to make a nice restriction for boost levels) I should be boost around 7-9psi unassisted. High setting is gonna be the same at that time till I tend to the fuel setup.

Fun with switch? Ohhh yea! With the flip of a switch, I can cut my MPG in half!

Same fuel map...there's a single load map that goes from 30"vacuum -> 20psi (and past slightly to around 25psi). The only thing that the boost controller is going to affect is how high up the map i'm going to be at any given time...i've barely even touched anything above 10psi now, cause I'm hopefully not going to be seeing it!

The injectors kinda has me worried slightly...the funny thing is, it's only happening when boost levels and RPM are low at WOT...like 3psi at 2600RPM...it peaks up around 11ms cycle (high!) and actually drops later on. I'm guessing this more of a load dependent issue...doesn't seem to do it in 3rd at all (where I can "legally" do most of my rough tuning ).

I can't wait to get it onto a dyno so I can smooth out my transitions from idle/cruise to light throttle to WOT. I get slight hesitations when hovering around light throttle...WOT smooth as butter!

Hmmm, so the question for me is, should I buy one when I do the whole Turbo thing....perhaps. Maybe I should just try and win the whole HP race and get a T04 and a FMIC huge *** injectors, the biggest freaking bridge port in existance and leave the stock exhaust on
Yes I'm pathetic and yes I bored
and yes i miss my damn catgirl

Zach McAfee

Catgirl? I'm confused.
Wow! Joe at the dyno! Hell must be freezing over.
How about July?

l33trx7

I used to have a catgirl in my sigpic, then the mods of the forum said it was too big and had to go.Right now I'm trying to resize it, but itsn't not going to well

Josepi

Do you have Adobe ImageReady (it comes with photoshop 7.0)?

If not, just email me the full size .gif and I can resize it at work tommorow in about a minute.

l33trx7

I have Imageready, it's just I can never get it to resize properly, yea sure, its on the way.

Josepi

One last thing, name the pixel size you want and the file size you want...

I'll do my bestest with color content.

DavidR

Did somebody say HP race?? I'm in.

Zach- Good luck with the T11 conversion. Turbo's are always fun.

Josepi

Don't you already have a head start?

DavidR

Nope. I still have a 13B.

l33trx7

yea but i bet it has a nice spiffy little RE on it too

onepointone

any word on those seats? his birthday is this sunday

l33trx7

yep they are for sale. However I'm still unsure of a price. Does 100 for both sound like too much?

onepointone

100 is cool if there are no rips and tears. i was going to say 100, but i didnt know if that was too low or anything, i havent looked into them much.

the only day i would be able to do it is saturday though. is that cool with you? if not, i guess we will have to work something else out. i currently dont have the money to fork over for them, but i do get paid friday.

l33trx7

well if you are willing to come down here on friday then its cool. I won't be here though but my dad will. Going down to Florida for the week. Don't worry, he's cool probably make you laugh your *** off. If thats cool then I can give you instructions to our house or you guys can meet. I need to know cause tommorow I'll take the seats out.

Happy B-day to me,i think im gonna celebrate this saturday night,maybe get my GF to drive me to the bottom and go to catch 22 or tiki bobs anyone wanna join? It sucks i just got off work and have to go in tonight.Who all is going to V.M.P. fri. night?Im going with a cooler this time.All though i did get a good laugh at zachs 10oz. heini.(beer that is).

Happy B-Day David. I have to work until 8 on Saturday but count me in after that.

I took the vacuum spider out last night with some help from Zach. Things went smooth, I think mostly due to the Coors Light. The only problem I ran into was finding a piece of silicon vacuum line that was long enough to run from the FPR to a proper vacuum source. I ended up using a piece that had been used for the charcoal canister. (That is gone now too) So far it is running the same as before, idle is damn good, no problem with hot or cold startup. Hopefully it will stay that way.

Don't think I will be able to make it to VMP, I may be out of town...if I am here however I will be there.

Oh yeah, Zach, Amanda (the tall one) asked me for your phone number today. I gave it to her, she said she was going to call you this evening.............j/k..i told her i would ask you b/c you are funny about giving out your phone number sometimes....I didn't know how to nicely say 'you annoyed him'.
