What have you done to your MSP today?

yep it was a dynojet.

Injen CAI
Perrin front mount intercooler
Vibrant downpipe back exhaust
Kartboy exhaust hangers
MPI Tuner (installed and tuned by Kooldino)
750cc extra injector
Relocated MAF
Greddy Type-S BOV
Greddy Profec B spec II
AWR front and rear mounts 88A
Exedy Stage 1 clutch
Mazdaspeed Revision 3 LSD
Kartboy shifter bushings
Autometer boost/oil press gauges
AEM wideband

on its way: Thunder exhaust manifold (I plan on JetHot coating it first)

I have some other mods but these are the main go fast goodies.

Ill get a secondary fuel rail with 330cc injectors after I get a built motor for some real fun. (MPI doesnt control primaries on my setup)
 
Man, I bet if you took it all the way to redline, you would've gotten around 215-225whp and 235-255 torque. Boy, that would've been nice!

nice numbers man. You have the MPI correct? Is this dyno with or without the new turbo manifold?

Thanks. I was trying to get a baseline before I installed the mani, oh well. I'm not sure how far it would have gone but it definitely has more than 200 whp.

Torque had already hit it's peak, horsepower had more room to go though. If I can get a good deal and I'm in the area again I'll tryn dyno before installing my Thunder mani.
 
well, finally got the replacement mirror and installed it...not the car is not as ugly.
replaced a broken wheel stud, now i'm no longer missing 1 lugnut....+1..after 1 1/2 years it was DUE!!!

made everything look nice and dandy...re-installed my heatshield, reinstalled the plastic valve cover, fixed a bunch of conenctions in the main engine wiring harness. re-taped everything where tape was missing, fixed an exhaust leak and no longer my exhaust is hanging sideways, replace both front endlinks, no more noise when going thru speed bumps, replaced a shitload of vaccum lines that were too big, too small or too ugly.
after all this i still got one more thing to replace, the WGA...

funny thing, when going to my friends house, i was boosting ok, 10PSI...after i finished all this, the damn thing was boosting 15psi!!!WTF? i thought....then i checked to make shure the MBC wasn't moved while working on the car. still the boost was not going any lower....decided to bypass the MBC and go back to stock boost...it still boost to 15PSI.
decided to do one more test, i blew into the vac line going to the WGA, and i was noticing, that even tho i don't do 10PSI by mouth...it wasn't holding the pressure, and when sucking air in, i could do it with no problem...
so, in concludion, the WGA is broken...how? i dunno....
should be arriving this week..placing the order tonite..
meanwhile...no boost..or boost and control the boost with my foot.

thats all folks!
 
i still have to put up my dyno vid of me getting 229.9 whp and 230.9 wtq, it was before i put on my front mount, it should have more power now atleast that's what the but dyno told me before the motor blew
 
just put on my SLS gauge rings. looks a lot better now since theres not as much plastic looking stuff on the dash. now i just have to stop looking at them before i get into an accident lol.

where those snap ins or did you have to glue them? Are they brushed aluminum?
 
I barely restrained the urge to beat in my front right fender with the nearest blunt, heavy object ..

The colder weather is making my one Ground Control creak and thump like MAD. It's making me INSANE. And it's just the one doing it -- none of the others are acting up. Which makes me even more crazy. Rraaghgh!
 
Got my stereo stuff in yesterday. Just gotta go take it to get installed when I get the check..

What's creaking and how did you install them? I saw a really cool install guide on either a B13 sentra or DSM. The used duct tape around the strut body until the sleeve was very tight, then put some silicone/RTV type material all around it and tapped the sleeve down with a mallet. The first few coils of the spring were covered with silicone hose (kind of like our stock springs). No noise ever when prepping the GC this way.
 
msp is back on the road :) got my extra injector bung rewelded finally. but the place that welded it left a good mess inside the pipe and a nice clump of aluminum inside where the injector goes. so 30 min of dremmeling, 10 min of wrestling the fuel line and injector, 2 things of milkduds, and a thing of smarties later shes running again.

lol
 
Yeah it's slowly driving me crazy, lol and I keep finding myself reaching to turn on the radio in hopes of drowning it out... (smash)
 
mine hasn't started with the noises this year yet. Well none that aren't there year round, but in the winter I'll get my creaks back I am sure.
 
the clunk pisses me off so bad i think that i could drive off into a ditch and forever lose her, and not feel to bad.
