BigRed 05-12-2007, 08:45 AM you'll need a turbo headlight adjuster. my supercharged one works just fine! thank you very much mysql101 05-12-2007, 08:46 AM without the bov, your lights are liable to just flop around when you hit bumps. BigRed 05-12-2007, 08:52 AM the pulley secures it enough man. i dont like to have a whistle noise when im driving from the bov. btw, if youre having headlight troubles, pettit makes a really nice supercharger to fix it. if your interested in the turbo, greddy makes an OK one. decide which way you want to fix it, then go which route. mysql101 05-12-2007, 08:53 AM I think he's already got the greddy, but it's installed backwards, so that's why the headlights are shining on the ground... if you don't like the whistle, you can recirculate. BigRed 05-12-2007, 08:54 AM that makes sense then. while he is at it he should change the hosings. they are not so good with greddy's kit. how could someone install it backwards? mysql101 05-12-2007, 08:57 AM it's blowing air into the engine from the exhaust port, which is why it's smoking now... mysql101 05-12-2007, 08:59 AM the nice thing about the turbo headlight adjuster is that you can get full headlight adjustment PSI at a very low rpm, and keep adjusting the headlights at that rate onwards... it's tied to engine load instead of rpm! BigRed 05-12-2007, 09:00 AM which in turn signals the ecu to reduce the flux capacitor's capacity which then tells the other ecu to lower one side of the headlights in order to reduce the lopsided activity in which the turbo was installed incorrectly. cased closed, im going to sue mazda for their poor gas mileage and low torque! mysql101 05-12-2007, 09:01 AM That's why I buy 100% stainless steel vented brake lines for maximal performance. The 2% copper ones cause problems down the road, even though you're saving $3.50. BigRed 05-12-2007, 09:03 AM which makes me wonder, if i buy new wheels and tires am I going to be a significantly faster driver on street roads? mysql101 05-12-2007, 09:14 AM no, you should buy as skinny a tire as you can afford. Our cars come with traction control, so no need to wear out your tires early by using them for traction. BigRed 05-12-2007, 09:19 AM that makes sense, because then we would have the lightest set of wheels and tires out there huh?

Yes http://www.rx8club.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=95957 chrism 05-12-2007, 09:44 AM you guys are both soooooooooooo off!.....you dont need to constantly adjust them...only when they are off...nitrous is the way to go BigRed 05-12-2007, 09:50 AM but with a nitrous system you have to reconfigure the ecu to adjust the flux capacitor. in theory you are just getting the same thing done with many more steps chrism 05-12-2007, 10:03 AM but its less stress on the bulbs BigRed 05-12-2007, 11:25 AM does that mean i should switch from my s/c to this system you call "nitrous"? chrism 05-12-2007, 02:37 PM absofriggenlutely |
