    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Relating to my previous post - I think I've got it figured out, but It has become a bit more of an endeavor than previously expected, so I may create a thread for it with some info for others. On a positive note, I went to my (very small) local junkyard and was shocked to find that they had...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    What did I do today? I did a big dumb. Though I'm not all too mad about it. Sliding around in a snowy parking lot and didn't see the little island curb in the middle of the lot. I've done a lot of driving and sliding in snow in the last year or so, but It finally caught up to me I guess...

    Why do our cars run so pig rich?

    That's right, totally forgot about that bit of context.

    Why do our cars run so pig rich?

    Yeah, it's not great compared to Hondas and Toyotas of the same era. But to be fair, it's not too bad. I get 23-27 MPG in town and consistently average 28 MPG with 70/30 highway/city driving. With 98% highway driving, it's 31-33 MPG which isn't too bad. One thing I've noticed is that even...

    Why do our cars run so pig rich?

    That's the general consensus I think, alas. Not that it can't be appreciated for how awesome it is though. I haven't personally done autocross with my P5, but I think it would be great for that even stock, with a good set of high performance tires. I run BFG g-Force Comp2 A/Ss in the warm...

    Why do our cars run so pig rich?

    No, NO....you're definitely right. You're not imagining it. I've seen the same posts. Mostly in regards to tuning differences between the stock and MP3 ECU. I can try to dig up some specific posts if I have time. The main thing people referenced was the poor fuel economy and the constant...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    Sweet! Thanks PCB, can always count on you coming to the recue. I was looking through the shop manual but wasn't aware of a separate wiring diagram. Cool! I will take a look! I gave up on trying to wire it without the diagrams after I saw that the loom for the headlight stock went straight...

    What have you done to your P5 today?

    For reasons which I will describe in a new post soon, I am currently trying to wire up a second foglight switch along side the stock one (in one of the blank spots) to toggle the ability to flash (or toggle) the fog lights with the high beams. I am trying to keep the semi-stock (1-wire foglight...

    Oh my goodness. You're kidding. That's an insane deal. Not like it's a super rare sports car or anything, but you could probably double or triple your money on it if you wanted to.
