which system are you now working on?

i'm working on building one for myself with a shop close to me (i really wanna learn as much as i can to help problem solve and improve the system in the future)...it'll use a t3 turbonetics and i'm figuring just running 6psi for the time being...i was going to look into an e-manage system or...

i'm not worried about making serious power in the short term...just looking for the best control over boost/timing/ignition/fuel on a limited budget...we will only run 6psi at first then up it to 8 later on...eventually get to 10-12 with a standalone

to do the job properly it looks like timing, fuel, and ignition all need to be tuned properly...which means a standalone right now i'm looking at the haltech which runs around $1300...it will use the stock injectors, fuel pump, etc but replace the ecu with one that can be tuned for boost...

so an erl mf2 (injector controller) will piggy back the stock ecu allowing it to increase fuel to a higher level...would i need to get new injectors or would this not be a problem until we go over 10 psi? the kit also mentions getting a msd boost timing master to control detonation (takes place...

I'm researching what kinda of ems system to get for a t3 turbonetics intercooled setup that is being custom built for my pr5...it'll be set at 6psi then up to 8psi which i've been told is very safe...eventually we want to reach 12psi with a tuned ems system (to be purchased later)...i did a...

car handles and rotates well...even has ability to give you tto (trailing throttle oversteer)

technically it is an accident (no fault for you)...though the oil feed line which was damaged was not stock...did something happen to your oil pan like a small hole, etc...if that did then set your car back to stock and take a claim (it may raise your insurance but not much compared to a...

youch...sorry to hear that...is insurance covering it?...it guess it would be in comprehensive coverage clause...:eek:

have you turbo'd your mp3?...i haven't had a single reliabilty probl with my pr5...and was considering getting the fm turbo kit down the line if i still want to keep it when the warranty expires doh!...my bad about the 200whp in a spec miata (i meant hp at the crank)...i type often type too...

http://www.nasatx.com/html/main.html for the local nasa region by you...scca also has a region there but i don't know the website for them...both are good places...as above you'd have to take lessons before actually competitively racing in a series as for the mp3...that is one awesome handling...

one thing you can do is get into a race school (tracks and organizations won't let you drive a road course without any experience)...Skip Barber, SCCA, Nasa, etc all offer driving lessons that get you the experience...they require that you have an instructor in the car with you since it is wheel...

Is it ok if I post information on the USTCC or other Mazda-related NASA Events (like driving schools or other amateur racing series)? I was always wondering it I'd be interested in watching some races or taking schools until I met someone else who told me what to do. So far there are 2 Mazda...
